I briefly considered the option of McCain in the increasingly unlikely event that Hillary gets the D nom.

Won't do that.

Won't vote for Hillary either -- that is something I have never, and will never, even consider.

I'd write in Obama's name whether he were running an active campaign or not.

One would also hope that in the increasingly unlikely event that he some how does not get the nom, he runs as an independent.

I have never bought into the idea that we should all rally around "our" party choice, whomever that may be.

If "my party" doesn't pick the candidate I support, I won't vote for whomever they do just because we're all wearing the same silly tassled hats.

That is not how you effect change. That's how you maintain the status quo. Just go along with it. Don't rock the boat.

No.

Not today. Not tomorrow. Not again.
