Default The next US President thread.

Now that we have only 3 runners until the democrats choose their one Neal could you create a new poll showing out of these 3 who we think would become next US president?

Default Now, who will be the next US president?

As per request. Poll closes in 14 days to avoid the ever-irritating zombie poll.

I had to vote for Obama. I don't want him to win but he seems to have the most support.

I have to point out... This isn't the greatest sample. It's skewed just a lil' towards men for starters.

I predict it depends. If the Dems nom is Hillary, it will be McCain. If the Dems nom is Obama, it will be him. But close.

PD

I "voted" for him for the opposite reason. I would prefer to see him get elected out of the 3, but I'm also suspecting McCain stands a much better chance than he does. :hmm:

McCain.

The question is who will he face? Clinton would be a less of a threat but we shall see.

Who has the best chances so that probability is in faovur of the person becoming president, that is the poll asking. So although two months ago I would not have imagined to say that: McCain. I think the endless duel between Clinton and Obama is damaging the democrat's camp in general.

from what I would consider to be the preferable option left now: I never supported clinton for I do not wnat the presidency being run as family business, not with the clintons, not with the Bushes, not with any other clan there is. Obama is unproven, he says a lot what he wants to do: chnaging things, but if he has the means (and the acceptance inside in the Washington shark pool that you need to swim through it in one piece) is not a given. So I go with McCain, if being forced to participate in elections. But I am not forced to vote, and so I never would vote any mainstream politician at all. Being pragmatic: maybe McCain is the smallest of the three evils left. He also is easier for europe to resist to than Obama, although both will make it more difficult, for it did not take a rocket scientist to refuse to join Bush's policies. Obama would confront europe with unrealistic demands of showing loyalty, and cause problems that way, McCain seem to have better insight into europe and europeans, and thus sets less drastic, more realistic goals in relations to europe, and what to dejmand of it, and what better not.

but , like the democrats the reps also havean internal problem. One really cannot say that the party is fully united behind McCain. And maybe this proves all my assessements wrong in novembre. so while it has become a bit easier to oversee the situation, still nothing is sure. But in the poill that Neal had started, I refused to make any predictions at all and did not vote, that open it all was.
