I voted for other, and I pick anyone-who-isn't-one-of-those-four.  I don't think McCain is in second place on the Republican side though.  Probably Romney.  Who I also wouldn't want to win..!

If I had to pick one of the people who seems truly honest, yet has no chance whatsoever, it'd be Kucinich on the Dems side, or Ron Paul on the other.

If I had to pick between Hillary and Guliani, the lesser of two evils is the one with a brain apparently still intact, I guess.  Mrs Corporate Shill herself, Hillary.  Guliani might have had some chance of having my support based purely on the opposition if he wasn't busy making baseless/false remarks and constantly spewing 9/11, pretty much proving to me that he'll be worse than another Bush.

Urg, can't we just bring back Teddy Rosevelt from the dead for another term?

Really tho, these choices seem terrible, who let these people run for their parties?

Fred Thompson seems to be the only one who hasn't flip flopped so I think i'm voting for him.

Mc Cain's done. I don't think he can get back up again. Romney I would never vote for. The mans too smooth for my tastes.

Between Hillary and Guliani I regret to say i'd vote for Mr. Liberal. Hillary spews so much bull shit i'm surprised her toungue isn't brown yet.Yeah, lets blame her debate dodge on sexism. Lets play the victim card.Ron Paul is an idiot.

I have to agree with Mets here, we'd be better off ressurecting a good president and re-electing them. Power in politics has mostly been given to the sycophants. CAN WE PLEASE GET THE PARTISAN OUT OF OUR NATION'S SKULL?

Outta that list (the candidates actually likely to ammount to anything) I have to pick Giuliani. Despite his dumb one horse answer to most everything, he actually also said the most I agree with, namely (insert fiscal/judicial conservative reasoning here.)

It's not that I like him at all, I just hate everybody else worse.

Yeah how sad is it that we're picking a president based on which we personally hate the least?  At least in 2000/2004 I actually had some amount of liking for the candidates I voted for, even if they didn't win.

It seems this election the candidates are playing more to special interest groups and lobbiests then they are to the American people who can actually vote. I don't see the logic in this.

The logic is that they make a lot of money.

If I even had the decision, I would probably vote for either of the two democrat front-runners (i can't bear to mention their names) just to make sure someone worse doesn't get in.

But yeah, wouldn't it be nice if a James K. Polk came riding in at the last minute and made us all slap our foreheads and say "GOSH, THIS IS THE GUY WE NEED." Sigh.

On a side note, candidates campaign for money first and votes second simply because they can't get votes without money, which may or may not be because a lot of folk aren't interested in elections nowadays.

This says I should vote for Bill Richardson #1, or Joe Biden #2.  I kinda like Biden, but looking over their stances, maybe I should prefer Richardson.  Biden just looks so much more like a president though.

It tells me I should decide between Romney and Huckabee.  ::) I don't think so.
