Virginia Freeper Huddle: who do we vote for on Tuesday ???
Vanity | 2/5/04 | Self

Well, now that Dean has self-destructed, and Kerry is well on the way to the nomination, is it even worth it, voting in the Democratic Primary on Tuesday ??

If so, who for ? Dean's no longer a factor, Edwards is as slimy as Kerry, if not more. . . is this the time to go back to the old plan of voting for Reverend Al for sheer comic value ????

"My hubby and I are voting for Dean. We WANT him in the race as long as possible so that he can bruise and batter Kerry all he wants. A weaker Kerry helps us down the road."

Sound analysis. If Dean starts to pick up any steam, he will stay in the race and rag Kerry to the end. Voting for Edwards won't hurt Kerry as he seems to be the Veep designee. Can't vote for General Ripper as he is Clinton's boy. I would keep Al as a second choice just in case Dean really tanks in Washington this weekend.

Well, we voted today. No spot for a write-in. So, it was Al or Edwards. Dean just does not have any support at all. Even a few votes won't help. Hubby wanted to vote for the Rev. Al, but he didn't. We both voted for Edwards. Then I worried: what if Kerry peters out and Edwards comes out on top? I don't think that a Kerry/Edwards ticket will sell any better than a Kerry/anybody ticket. Kerry is simply too liberal. Too creepy. Too skeletal. Too much of a gigolo. I don't think Edwards has a shot against George Bush either.

The misssuz and I voted for Howard Dean. (Now we feel so unclean!) Funny thing - we voted at noon and she was number 27 and I was number 28 in a heavy RAT precinct. Not a lot of interest, in other words.

I felt rather unclean myself. One of the polling people was laughing about something, and he said, "What's that they say about US: vote early and often." hehehe (he laughed) I laughed to myself and made sure to come home and call a few friends to go vote.

I thought the guy was a rather creepy-lookin' RAT. He sure tried to see where my card was punched, too.

Looks like Virginia conservatives are "splitting" our vote among Reverend Al, Dr. Demento, and the Breck girl.

I'm going for the gusto and voting for Dean. I'm going after work - the way it sounds there won't be much of a line.

I actually voted in a dem primary before - when Virgil Goode challenged Chuck Robb. And look what happened - he became a republican. No chance of that happening with Dr. Demento.

I'm waiting for hubby to get home from work to go.

I have no idea who I'm going to vote for - and reading through this thread has me even more confused.........sigh.

This is a first for me - I've never lived in a state without party affiliation registration.
