6. I Respect That You Wouldn't, and I Wouldn't Either
But maybe some people are willing to sacrifice integrity for a perceived increase in electability? Or something?

8. Wouldn't surprise me
There certainly appears to be evidence of that kind of undying support.

But I suspect those that answered your poll in such a fashion are trying to be funny.

4. I'd treat him like a republican
I'd look him in the eye, poke him in the chest and kick him in the ass. Probably kick him/her to the curb as well.
