11. My Previous Primary Picks
1992, I supported Jerry Brown

1996, I supported Clinton

2000, I got screwed out of voting in the primaries, due to a move...I moved from Kentucky, which had not yet had it's primary...to Texas, which already HAD had itt's primary. But I was a Bradley supporter. I wound up writing him in in the General Election, voting myself VP. It was a throwaway vote and I knew it...but, being as I knew Texas was going Bush no matter how many Gore votes got cast, I felt okay doing that.

2004, I started out Edwards, then hopped to Dean when his message attracted me, (this was before he was frontrunner) and I hung with him till he dropped, after Wisconsin. I then defected back to the Edwards camp, and cast my ballot accordingly in Early Voting in the Texas Primary.
In my heart, I'd love to support Kucinich, but since he had zero chance of beating Chimpy, I could not bring myself to support him.

I'll be solid Dennis in 2008, however, should he choose to run again...even if he does it third party. Unless there is some radical sea-change between then and now.
