I’m a Democrat registered as and masquerading as an (kidding myself mainly) Independent - as I vote Dem probably 80% of the time and almost always in the national races.

I could live with McCain.

Democrat. McCain.

In fact, If it was McCain v. Kucinich, I’d vote for McCain without hesitation.

I abhor all the Pubbie candidates’ policy positions, but among them McCain seems to be the least personally evil man. However, with the Republicans personal qualities don’t really matter – no matter who you vote for to be Sauron, his administration is still gonna be staffed by orcs.

half-hearted Democrat here.

I’m thinking Romney, BECAUSE he has no “stand fast” principles, kinda like Bill Clinton. He’ll make deals that he doesn’t personally like. Plus I think his platform will completely change after getting his party’s nomination – I would count on him to betray the Republican hard right wing.

As a Democrat I would prefer Chuck Hagel if he were still running. Among those still in the race, I prefer Mike Huckabee.

As an independent who usually votes Democratic, if I had to pick a Republican, uh, urggh, maybe Rudy. Needs a better hair stylist though.
