General Vanessa Carlton Discussion / [Us Magazine] V Backing Obama

I'll only vote for Barack Obama if Hillary Clinton is the VP, otherwise I still stand with the millions of other women and loyal clinton supporters who will either NOT vote or will be voting for John McCain within the next few months. After all he said and put her through...I cannot easily cross the line and vote for him. I wonder if Vanessa got a nice donation like all the others who backed Obama.

I was a Hillary voter too but since Obama is now the nominee I will vote for him despite the fact that I think Hillary would have done a better job. I really don't understand the logic of a Hillary supporter voting for McCain just to protest her not getting the nomination. Do you really think she wants you to vote a Republican into office? That's the kind of logic that got us 8 years of Bush. That really bugs me about the Democrats. I believe you have to support the party over a candidate when all is said and done in the National Election. I HATED having to vote for Kerry last election but I did because there's no way I wanted a Republican to win. As Democrats, our mortal enemies should be Republicans not other Democrats that said bad things about the people we supported during the campaign. That's what happens in politics. You're not going to win by complimenting your opponents.
I would strongly urge all Hillary voters not to vote if they truly can't vote for Obama but please don't vote for McCain because that would take 2 more votes to overcome so if you do vote for him and he wins you have no right to complain about him because you got what you asked for.

It is not only because Hillary lost that I decided to vote for McCain.

lets go back in time to the Rules and Bylaws Committee meeting over Michigan and Florida, remember that? Oh yes! Obama dismissing it over and OVER again, putting his foot down so the votes would not be counted. In the end, the RBC decided to split the votes down the middle. You have got to be friggin kidding me. He pulled his name off the ballot. HRC was not stupid, she knew every vote counted and she left her name there and Obama was in a LIST of uncommitted she won 50%-33% and they split it down the middle?! And to really add to that, they TOOK FOUR OF HER DELEGATES and gave them to Barack Obama. What the hell for? So he could clinch the nomination by ONE delegate. Otherwise it would have been taken to Denver, but you know what? Obama, Osama, Odrama, has everyone in his pocket. Like Donna Brazile (a HUGE supporter of Obama) who was part of the RBC. He destroyed the party, not Hillary. She won the popular vote, she won states that mattered in the General Election and he should have pulled out. He racked up small states that won't help him in the GE and he was a good fundraiser! (Oh and he's not accepting public funding anymore, another wishy washy move from Obama)

I was disgusted by the Democratic Party and the RBC, so now I'm going to the GOP.

Well that's your prerogative. I agree that the Democratic Party screwed up royally when they abandoned the winner take all format that enabled Obama to win by targeting small pockets of voters just to get delegates but there's no way I would go to the GOP because it would totally go against my beliefs on many issues. Hope you enjoy your new party but I think you'll find that it isn't any better there. I don't really like Obama but I sure as hell believe that America would be better off with him than with McCain and his like.

I'm so excited that it's on Thursday. It's the best dance show on TV. I think I saw the girl that made it to the L.A. part but twisted her ankle and couldn't continue 2 seasons ago. They gave her a free pass to L.A. but she had a scheduling conflict last season but it looks like she made it this season.
