Then we should all review the states and counties rules for write-in candidates. As we all know the rules change, but it would important to know if those votes would be counted. If not then we can all make informed decisions on whether to vote for McCain, write-in anyway, or sit it out. Obviously, Hillary's campaign wouldn't formally endorse such a plan because we know how well that would go over in MSM, who are already accusing her of destroying the party. It is better to be armed with info when the ballot is in hand, rather than wonder if that write-in vote carried any weight. With all this talk about write-in Hillary, if Obama gets the nom.

So by asking them to write-in Hillary you are asking them to throw their vote away....essentially not show up to the polls. Which is exactly what Donna Brazille wants, and has said on air and in abusive email. I doubt know if you are an paid op like you accuse us of being. However, if Obama has the nom and there is no write-in status for Hillary. I WILL BE VOTING FOR MCCAIN SO THAT MY VOTE AGAINST OBAMA COUNTS. That man will not benefit from someone like you or Brazille discrediting my vote against him. That man will not benefit from subverting democracym and have me on the sideline passing this election up! I never have stood out before and shame on you for trying to convince people to do it now! Yikes,

I too thought of leaving the party but all of the alternatives are even worse. I'll either sit it out or just check the down ballot boxes and let McCain have this one. See ya in 2012- maybe!

Why don't people understand this? Wow, imagine if someone like Martin Luther King were the candidate? That would be someone I could support. I believed him to be authentic, non-violent, and non-racist. He had a powerful message. Thanks, Nette60. Why don’t people understand this?
