39. I will happily vote for her if she wins the primary.

Fri Jan 23, 2015, 11:26 PM

Jan 2015

Durring the primary I will compare what poicies and programs she proposes against the other candidates. I will also watch the regular polls in head to head matchups against Republicans. I will choose the candidate that I think has the best chance to kick Republican Ass. On small mark in her favor is that she is a woman. I think men have had ample chance to screw everything up and it is time take another step to equal opportunity. But that is not a deciding factor.

Just before the primary I could give you reasons why I choose a candidate, but not until then.

It matters which party is in charge.
