Blake Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 My predictions:  Obama beats Hillary  McCain beats Ron Paul bets Huckabee  P.S. the voting/ballot for democrats is completely meaningless and will not be used to assign delegates. If you were going to vote in the democratic primary, instead figure out which Republican you like least, and vote for one of the others!

olyclimber Posted February 8, 2008 Author Share Posted February 8, 2008 For those that have decided they are voting for a democratic canidate:  he Washington State Democratic Party decided last year that our input into the nominating process would be done through caucuses — and only caucuses. Therefore, the only way you can make your voice heard for the candidate you support is by participating in the Washington State Democratic Caucus on Saturday February 9th, 2008 at 1:00pm in the afternoon. (Confusingly, there is also a Primary on February 19th, but for Democrats, the Primary does not count towards awarding candidates delegates to the National Convention in Denver. If you are supporting a specific candidate, the caucus is the only way to help him or her win!)  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
olyclimber Posted February 8, 2008 Author Share Posted February 8, 2008 Also this: Â The dirty secret of the caucus system is this: Once you have signed in and written in the name of your preferred candidate, you have voted. If you don't want to switch your vote (i.e. if you're backing Clinton or Obama) and you have no interest in serving as a delegate to the county convention, you can just go home and your vote counts. Ten minutes, tops. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClimbingPanther Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 i'm super curious what actual purpose the democrat primary serves? what a waste of ink. Â does the federali.. i mean republican party work the same way or is the primary meaningful? Â oh, and Hillary will win WA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

olyclimber Posted February 8, 2008 Author Share Posted February 8, 2008 it looks like the republicans do it this way: Â The GOP is choosing roughly half of its delegates through the primary and the other half through the caucuses, also on Feb. 9. Â which sounds more confusing though at least they aren't having a meaningless primary Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minx Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 Hillary because Obama cant beat McCain. Â hmmmm...why do you, in your infinite kevbone wisdom think that obama can't beat mccain? and moreover, why do you think hilary can? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kevbone Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 Hillary because Obama cant beat McCain.  hmmmm...why do you, in your infinite kevbone wisdom think that obama can't beat mccain? and moreover, why do you think hilary can?  Um...everything I've read has indicated that it's more likely the other way around, Kev.   I am not so sure…..I will support either one. If you want to vote for the economy…..Hillary is your gal…..if you want to vote to get out of Iraq Obama is your boy. That is how I see it. Let’s not forget Hillary is married to Bill. He was president for the most prosperous time for the USA EVER! Since then…..this country has only ran up the debt thanks to the Bush Crime Family and all the ignorant voters who voted for him (seahawks).  I think there are too many ignorant racist MF@#$#$’s out there who cannot see past color. It is a shame due to Obama appearing to be the real deal.  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minx Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 kevin, i think there are an equal number of mysoginists out there who can't see past gender. Â i think hilary is going to be bent on being seen as independent of Bill. i wouldn't assume that his presence will influence economics much.

sirwoofalot Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 For those that have decided they are voting for a democratic canidate: he Washington State Democratic Party decided last year that our input into the nominating process would be done through caucuses — and only caucuses.

Just like a wolf in sheeps clothing.  Typical.  Oh, I am 100% for Colin Powel. Yeah, all of your already know it, but until it is official, and the few have decided for the many, our primary system, I am still casting my vote for CP.  Where are you man?
