STRAW POLL

I want in on the action. Everybody, every group, every commentator seems to be conducting a "straw poll" to see how the election is going. Well I'm conducting my own! There's no political affiliation here - just a simple vote - and they are anonymous. So, let's have an early election of sorts and see what comes up! Alert your family and friends and ask them to vote. Campaigning is allowed!



EXERCISE YOUR RIGHT TO VOTE!!

Sorry I can't give you a cool purple finger, but you'll have the satisfaction of taking part in the American political process!

Cool idea, but I think your friends and family are a bit biased... maybe I'll send my dad to your poll so you can have at least one Obama vote... :(

Sheri said...

I want to vote for Mitt. I don't like any of the other candidates.

By all means, send your Dad, Christy. I think there may be at least one vote in family for Obama - I won't give their identity away! I'd like to hear what other "sane" people think - I'm not talking about pundits and commentators - but REAL people!

LauraB said...

P.S. Sorry, Sheri - you have to pick one of the two. And, no, no votes for Ron Paul, either. While I appreciate people wanting more choices, the real race is between the two parties - you need to decide which of these two will guide your future. A third party, as our system currently operates, is only a spoiler.

I'm voting for Glenn Beck

See my note to Sheri, Jon. Pick one and live with it!

I understand all the comments. I wanted Guiliani, but that isn't happening, so you go with the best of your options. I might not agree with McCain on everything, but after serving Arizona for years, I at least trust him. Besides, I can't afford Obama's plans: more taxes and more government control. That's not ok with me.

I'm with Teresa. Besides I like McCain's running mate.
