  • Americans: Which person on the other party would you vote President?

    Ok, say GW suffers a heart attack and decides not to run. Now the Republican primary is hotly contested, and Apolytoners get to vote to count in both primaries.

    Unfortunately, the ballots were mixed up and Democrats have to vote for a Republican, and Republicans have to vote for a Democrat. BUT THERE IS A CATCH! You have to vote for the guy you'd most like to see President (instead of the one you'd think would be the easiest for your party to beat), because... well let's just say mind control and be done with this silly hypo .

      I can't say I'd vote for any of those guys.

      Though I'd vote for Putin.

          I would probably vote for Lieberman if the above choices were all that was available. (Although it would be a reluctant vote)

            I picked Kerry myself. He's a very smart guy, and I'd think he'd do the right thing, even if I don't agree with him on stuff .

              I picked Ridge: he did a good job in Pennsylvania, and I prefer his temperment to McCains..to bad he got stuck with a useless jok of a job.

                Pataki

                He's done wonders for the NY economy! Gives us the opportunity to "share the love" with the rest of the nation.

                Hmm, why not Bloomberg?

                  Pataki is a very popular governor. I said, why not. After all, I did put Bob Graham on the Dem primary side.

                    Graham is a legitimate primary candidate. Pataki isn't. And neither is Jeb Bush...

                      Sava, would it pain you to read an opening post?

                      NONE of the Republican people are legitimate primary candidates, because they have the Presidency! Sheesh!

                        Not anymore, after the budget fiasco (when the legislature got together and *****slapped them) and with the MTA fiasco. He has lost a lot of political allies in the state who are not happy with him. But he did get away with the same stunt Davis pulled..thankfuly, NY likes their politics dirty and byzantine, not byzantine and insane.

                          No, I was saying Pataki was the best choice out of the available Republicans. Just don't believe a word he says when he talks about the budget. (And he ain't that popular around here any more, BTW)

                            Well he's at 50% .

                            I probably should have put Guiliani, but I don't think he'll ever run for President.

                              But you could have at least pick realistic imaginary primary candidates. McCain won't ever run again. Pataki and Jeb aren't realistic either.
