Would you vote for McCain

if he picked Kerry as his running mate?

[Bronco69]

1. Not only NO,

but HELL NO!!

[JohnLocke]

2. Versus who?

[RUMMYisFROSTED]

3. A coelacanth.

[JohnLocke]

5. Isn't that the rare south African fish they thought was extinct? (nt)

[RUMMYisFROSTED]

7. Yes.

Does that help with your choice? :shrug:

[JohnLocke]

11. Hmm.

At least a rare fish wouldn't invade foreign countries recklessly and pack federal courts with right-wing ideologues. :)

[WoodrowFan]

25. also found near Indonesia

a DIFFERENT species of Coelacanths in the eastern Indian Ocean!

[arcos]

8. this one?

[JohnLocke]

14. This is what I remember to be a coelacanth.

:)

[RUMMYisFROSTED]

20. Keep in mind that coelacanth's are typically pocketbook voters.

Makes the poll much tougher!

[WoodrowFan]

24. which ones?

are these NASCAR Dad Coelacanths or soccer mom Coelacanths?

[JohnLocke]

26. Neither.

SECURITY mom coelanths. :)

27. these fishy attempts at threadjacking are only kicking the poll

:)

not that I'm complaining.

Hey JohnLocke or anyone else, what do you make of the percentage on one poll being about 4/1 for Kerry/McCain and the percentage on this being about 4/1 against McCain/Kerry?

Aside from the obvious, that is.

I wish there was a way to run a poll to see how the people that voted yes on the first one, voted on the second one.

[Cleita]

4. No, I don't vote for Republicans ever, even if they wore a halo

and walked on water. If a Democrat runs, like Zell Miller, whom I absolutely can't stand, I would write in a candidate or vote third party.

6. McCain picking Kerry? Question = doh!

What sort of hypothetical alternate reality are you asking the question from? Would I vote for him if he were running against shrub - sure, but since we're making this up from sratch, if he were running against Wes Clark I wouldn't....

[theo4487]

12. No.

McCain is a good man, but there is a reason he is not a member of the Democratic Party: his beliefs are consisten with the Republican platfrom.

[fryguy]

18. no argument from me on your point

but my point is that, given the choice between McCain and chimp, I'd go with McCain even though he is a stinky repub....so without knowing who is on the other side of the equation, its either impossible to answer or a meaningless response....

16. I want to see more responses

before I indicate the particular alternate reality I'm coming from, other than to say I'm interested in how people respond to this as an open-ended question...

[maveric]

9. If the election was bu$h vs McCain for prez, no dem candidate

then I would give him my vote. The lesser of two evils.

17. yet the question was

McCain with Kerry.
Kerry's a Democrat, right?

[onehandle]

10. who cares. it's not going to happen. nt

[robbedvoter]

13. Hell NO! (voted against 911 recovery $ for NYC - for starters)

[Terry_M]

15. You have to clarify who McCain would be up against.

If he was against good ol Zell, then I'd vote McCain...

19. Clarifying would be a different poll.

:)

[guitar man]

21. NO

I WILL NOT vote for any fucking Republicans, no way, no how! If someone is left in that party that DOES still care about America, let them leave the damn party if they want my vote. As long as they are associated with the scum-sucking bottom-dwellers, they'll get nothing from me!

22. I confess

That's exactly my opinion.

My poll is a response to the would you vote for the Kerry/McCain polls that keep getting floated.

[VOX]

23. Haven't voted for a Republican yet, and I don't intend to...

McCain would have to change his party affiliation, and then he'd have to change some of his views before I even considered him as a candidate.
