Well I think McKinney is the official Green Party candidate, so she's probably another one that liberals would vote for because Obama isn't liberal enough.Wino you know wrote:Robert Barr is on the ticket because he feels McCain is not conservative enough, Ralph Nader is on the ticket because he feels Obama is not liberal enough, and I've never heard of that other guy.jonesbeach10 wrote:I'm guessing that most, if not all, of the votes for 3rd party candidates are from those that are disillusioned and not happy with either Obama or McCain.Wino you know wrote:In the name of every freaking thing that is, has been, and always will be holy!!!!
Two people actually voted CYNTHIA MCKINNEY?
PLEASE tell me it's a joke!![]()
Now if Mings was an option...
As for Cynthia McKinney, she's a bona-fide NUT CASE, and belongs in the rubber room at Oakdale.

Re: OBAMA
If Obama wins, I DO hope Jimmy plays the inaugural. Hell, I hope Jimmy gets a cabinet post. (As long as it doesn't interfere with the concert schedule, that is!)MileHighPirate wrote:OBAMA gets my vote. (you don't say)

I think I've made my mind up and am going to vote for Chuck Baldwin on Tuesday.
Obviously, I know he isn't going to win, but I can't go on saying that Republicans and conservatives must stand on principle if I'm not willing to do it, myself.

not to say that you are this way, but it makes me scared that people will actually be going to the polls having no idea who they are going to vote for. not only says bad things about the person's indifference, but also about how our election system seems to cast a sense of futility over the individual vote. i hope these people just dont vote, or vote for my guy....buffettbride wrote:Or I could be wrong.buffettbride wrote:WTF do you mean, woman?

Maybe there should be an "undecided" option 'cause I think there's folks who really are and won't know until they get to the poll. Or maybe a "not voting" option.
Or maybe do an exit poll on Wednesday to see if this poll matches what people actually did.
That's what's the mostest interesting.
OBAMA!!!!
If I had it all to do over again, I'd just get myself drunk and I'd jump right back in...

Was it Lewis Black that said that "the Democrats are a party of no ideas, and the Republicans are a party of really bad ideas"?SuperTrooper wrote:Lewis Black had it right when he said about presidential elections:

More Lewis:
“A republican stands up in congress and says 'I GOT A REALLY BAD IDEA!!' and the democrat stands up after him and says 'AND I CAN MAKE IT $HITTIER!!'”
"In my lifetime, we've gone from Eisenhower to George W. Bush. We've gone from John F. Kennedy to Al Gore. If this is evolution, I believe that in 12 years, we'll be voting for plants."
"I do have certain feelings. My feeling is that whoever is in charge, I want him out."
C'mon everybody, it's time to lighten up a little.

If you haven't voted in any poll question on BN, there's tiny print under all the choices that says, "view results", and you can click on that to see how the poll is running.Snowparrot wrote:I won't vote in your poll because I can't vote in your election, but I am curious to find out what the standings are so far.

You'd think that in over 5 years and over 3000 posts, I would have figured that one out already!
