| I've been forced to read and hear way too much about Kucinich since we've been up here in Cleveland for almost the past three weeks. He's the area congressman and facing (rightly so) a lot of vicious attacks as the congressional elections get going. The one biggest question I have...where in the world did he get his wife? Has anybody seen her? She looks like a supermodel. Seeing them together is a little like watching a slightly demented leprechaun walking next to Lady Galadriel from the Lord of the Rings... |
See this face? This is the face of a woman on the edge.

| Well, now that it is down to The Final Four candidates, I have cast my vote. Unless something changes my mind, I will have to go with John McCain. |

I missed the proper voting age by one year.
One year.
Now, I have to wait four more.
I turn seventeen in May.
Why couldn't it be eighteen?  |
For attractive lips, speak words of kindness.
For lovely eyes, seek out the good in people.
For a slim figure, share your food with the hungry.
For beautiful hair, let a child run his fingers through it once a day.
For poise, walk with the knowledge you'll never walk alone.

There will come a day, nativedoll, when you'll never wish to be one minute older than you already are, so stop complaining and just enjoy being 17. |

| Yep! Me too. I vividly remember my first time out voting. I had to mark a paper ballot. |

I recall marking more than one paper ballot -- and yes, I do mean in different years!
Thrilled as I am to see other Obama voters on this website, I find it hard to believe that the poll as it now stands is representative of Mohicanland. Methinks many of the more conservative citizens of this realm have not yet voted. |

We still use paper ballots here in MN. We connect 2 dashes to make a line with a marker next to the name of our candidate and feed it into an optical scan machine on the way out the door. I am really scared of the idea of voting without a paper ballot. It seems that it would be too easy to manipulate the vote without a hard copy to verify results.
As to the lack of Republican votes by mohicanlanders on this poll I have to state that I have been removing candidates as they drop out and as I remember a lot of mohicanlanders had voted for Romney and Giuliani. I can in see why McCain, Huckabee and Paul are not receiving a lot of backing. McCain pisses off hardcore conservatives with his campaign finance reform and environmental positions(that's just for starters), Paul is too far out and offers a bitter pill to his party, Huckabee is great with people but his religious views and financial policy are too extreme for some.
I support Obama and was happy to cast my vote for him the day I created this poll. If he does not receive the nomination I will not vote for Hillary. I will either abstain or vote for a third party. Hell, I'd vote for McCain before I'd vote for Hillary. I take that back- that whole we're gonna be in Iraq for the next century thing he's floated doesn't work for me. |

There are definitely more Republicans on this board than Democrats, but I love them anyway. 
I'm not really thrilled with any of the candidates, but I WILL NOT vote for McCain and I WILL NOT vote for Hillary. I guess that I will vote for Obama and that is said without much enthusiasm.
Love,

| For what it's worth, I WILL NOT vote for Hillary either. If not Obama, then McCain, illogical as that sounds. At least his press conferences would be lively. |

When will they learn? Didn't John Kerry try the hunting thing, to everyone's dismay, 4 years ago? |

LOL. Good idea! I think an awful lot of people would be really happy if he made another "mistake" while on that trip. |
