I feel guilty because I simply do not like a certain candidate.

It is not that I don't like his policies. I don't like HIM, and I feel bad that I feel this way.

I'm old enough to know you can't be best friends with everybody. Some people will irritate you by just being in the same room you are in and breathing.

I think other people need to be honest with themselves and admit that is how they feel about whichever candidate "you just don't like".

That is no reason not to vote for them - IF they win the nomination.

(I'm still preaching that to myself).

HBDIII. He is so pompous,you understand. He likes it,so shouldn't you.
He talks big, but has not delivered. Watching for something. Waiting is boring.

ABB always.

2. No reason to feel guilty

I think we all have had similar experiences during this race.

All that matters;

- Vote for the one you think will do the best job during the Primary

- Vote for the Democratic Nominee at the General Elections, NO MATTER WHO.

3. There is one candidate that I don't

like either, even though I probably agree with him on every issue but I just don't personally like him. If this candidate gets the nomination I will vote for him and do everything I can to make sure he gets elected, getting chimp OUT is the most important thing to me.

4. I am guilty of simply not liking pledges of allegiance to other flags

while "my guy" is still full well in the running, and a certain other candidate is now backpedaling on prior bravado inviting others to express criticism.

I am also guilty of not being impressed by the apparent insecurity of apparent supporters of Democratic candidates towards the sanity of committed progressives that populate this board. In that vein, here's late braking news: Ralph Nader still not running for Office, and the televized pledge of allegiance among Democratic contenders still remains intact.

5. I have this theory

I think a considerable percentage of humanity, to some extent continues to function at a pre-rational level. We are wired to judge other people by physical characteristics and subtle personal qualities. It's loose wiring but it still works. Before humans got rational and eloquent (well aren't we?) it was useful, and now it's often counter-productive and silly. Unless you're hitchhiking or something.
So if you have a gut feeling, you're human. If you ever happen to meet John Kerry, Wesley Clark, Al Sharpton, Howard Dean, etc., in a dark alley---do what you gotta do.
