Title: Which candidate from the opposing party would you rather have win? Post by: / on November 18, 2015, 07:13:39 AM Carson, to be honest.
Title: Re: Which candidate from the opposing party would you rather have win? Post by: Mehmentum on November 18, 2015, 07:38:59 AM Paul. Foreign policy is what the president has the most control over.
Title: Re: Which candidate from the opposing party would you rather have win? Post by: Bismarck on November 18, 2015, 09:16:24 AM Bernie. Let the people see what the left really looks like once and for all. Our country is strong enough that we can weather it for four years.

Title: Re: Which candidate from the opposing party would you rather have win? Post by: °Leprechaun on November 18, 2015, 10:56:53 AM Rand Paul. No brainer.
Title: Re: Which candidate from the opposing party would you rather have win? Post by: Absentee Voting Ghost of Ruin on November 18, 2015, 12:21:47 PM Bush - hopefully he'd serve to discredit both the "two party" system and the Republicans without doing too much damage along the way, or being too-scary in office himself. Cruz and his fellow nutters (including Trump) scare me deep down in ways that the "establishment" Republicans don't (even though I think they're awful too).
Title: Re: Which candidate from the opposing party would you rather have win? Post by: Crumpets on November 18, 2015, 12:21:53 PM Christie - sane person who is ready to govern, but is probably still beatable in 2020.
Title: Re: Which candidate from the opposing party would you rather have win? Post by: An American Tail: Fubart Goes West on November 18, 2015, 12:28:57 PM Christie - sane person who is ready to govern, but is probably still beatable in 2020. I like Paul's foreign policy, but I'd still go with Christie for reasons mentioned above. Title: Re: Which candidate from the opposing party would you rather have win? Post by: H.E. VOLODYMYR ZELENKSYY on November 18, 2015, 12:35:21 PM Trump, so we can at least have a little fun.
Title: Re: Which candidate from the opposing party would you rather have win? Post by: I spent the winter writing songs about getting better on November 18, 2015, 12:40:01 PM Trump because he's really a deep cover operative.
Title: Re: Which candidate from the opposing party would you rather have win? Post by: Maxwell on November 18, 2015, 12:44:27 PM The Donald. I also accept Paul, because foreign policy.
Title: Re: Which candidate from the opposing party would you rather have win? Post by: Ljube on November 18, 2015, 12:50:11 PM Hillary, of course.
Title: Re: Which candidate from the opposing party would you rather have win? Post by: DrScholl on November 18, 2015, 12:59:05 PM None of them.
Title: Re: Which candidate from the opposing party would you rather have win? Post by: Clark Kent on November 18, 2015, 01:04:52 PM Hillary Clinton, because she won't tax the clothes off of my back and isn't a socialist.
Title: Re: Which candidate from the opposing party would you rather have win? Post by: Del Tachi on November 18, 2015, 01:11:45 PM Hillary Clinton because she has the most impressive resume of anybody currently seeking the office
Title: Re: Which candidate from the opposing party would you rather have win? Post by: Ljube on November 18, 2015, 01:12:30 PM That's not an option. You have to pick one. Title: Re: Which candidate from the opposing party would you rather have win? Post by: Illiniwek on November 18, 2015, 01:14:55 PM Overall I do like Bush and I do think he would make an above average executive when he doesn't have to campaign. That being said I think Paul stole my support due to his foreign policy stances at this last debate. I think it will be meaningless by the time the race comes to Illinois, but if I decide to vote in the GOP primary, I think Paul will get my vote.
Title: Re: Which candidate from the opposing party would you rather have win? Post by: DrScholl on November 18, 2015, 01:48:29 PM That's not an option. You have to pick one. I don't have to do anything. I said none of them and I am entitled to an opinion. Thanks. Title: Re: Which candidate from the opposing party would you rather have win? Post by: The Other Castro on November 18, 2015, 01:50:25 PM Rand Paul.
Title: Re: Which candidate from the opposing party would you rather have win? Post by: Asian Nazi on November 18, 2015, 09:20:58 PM I want Clinton to win the Democrat nomination because Sanders (and, to a greater extent, his supporters) are awful and don't deserve nice things.
I want Trump to win the Republican nomination because he's a FF who will make America great again. Title: Re: Which candidate from the opposing party would you rather have win? Post by: Kingpoleon on November 18, 2015, 09:31:50 PM Kasich/O'Malley
Voted O'Malley because I'm supporting Kasich right now. Title: Re: Which candidate from the opposing party would you rather have win? Post by: Intell on November 18, 2015, 09:35:22 PM Kasich or Trump.
Title: Re: Which candidate from the opposing party would you rather have win? Post by: dudeabides on November 18, 2015, 10:13:03 PM Martin O'Malley is the only Democrat running for President who isn't either corrupt or for "free" education.
Title: Re: Which candidate from the opposing party would you rather have win? Post by: RosettaStoned on November 18, 2015, 10:28:30 PM O'Malley because he is the most hawkish.
Title: Re: Which candidate from the opposing party would you rather have win? Post by: I support Sanders on November 18, 2015, 10:38:56 PM I'm a registered Democrat who is supporting Sanders in the primaries (O'Malley is my second choice). Of the Republicans, I like Kasich (economic and social moderate; reasonable foreign policy) the best. Trump (economic and social moderate), Paul (non-interventionist), Pataki (socially liberal), Graham (economic moderate), and Gilmore (reasonable foreign policy and socially moderate) are also decent.
Title: Re: Which candidate from the opposing party would you rather have win? Post by: NeverAgain on November 18, 2015, 10:42:16 PM Pataki - Last Rockefeller Republicans left.
Title: Re: Which candidate from the opposing party would you rather have win? Post by: OSR stands with Israel on November 18, 2015, 10:45:59 PM Clinton
Title: Re: Which candidate from the opposing party would you rather have win? Post by: Xing on November 18, 2015, 10:52:34 PM Trump. If we're going to f*** ourselves over, might as well do it as thoroughly as possible.
Title: Re: Which candidate from the opposing party would you rather have win? Post by: Thomas D on November 18, 2015, 11:26:39 PM Trump. Atleast he not a real SoCon. I bet he's been to more gay weddings than this forum has gay members.
Title: Re: Which candidate from the opposing party would you rather have win? Post by: Higgs on November 19, 2015, 12:14:40 AM Sanders for a GOP win in 2020.
Not taking that into account, probably O'Malley Title: Re: Which candidate from the opposing party would you rather have win? Post by: Coolface Sock #42069 on November 19, 2015, 10:14:10 AM Martin O'Malley. Not socialist like Sanders, not a criminal liability like Clinton. Also much younger than the other two.
Title: Re: Which candidate from the opposing party would you rather have win? Post by: mencken on November 19, 2015, 10:57:54 AM Difficult choice. Sanders is more trustworthy on foreign policy, gun rights, and immigration. However, unlike with Clinton (who would never implement any policy before first clearing it with her Wall Street benefactors), Sanders runs a non-insignificant chance of trying to turn the country into Kampuchea. Do I drink the low-dose poison that will slowly kill me over a number of years, or do I opt for Russian roulette?
Title: Re: Which candidate from the opposing party would you rather have win? Post by: Penelope on November 19, 2015, 11:01:48 AM Trump -- why go with the lesser of 17 evils?
Title: Re: Which candidate from the opposing party would you rather have win? Post by: BlueSwan on November 19, 2015, 11:40:56 AM I'd have to say Kasich or Bush. Christie might be OK, but I'm afraid of his temper in that role.
Title: Re: Which candidate from the opposing party would you rather have win? Post by: Maxwell on November 19, 2015, 12:21:08 PM Pataki - Last Rockefeller Republicans left. lol at Pataki being a Rockefeller Republican. Pataki is deeply conservative. Title: Re: Which candidate from the opposing party would you rather have win? Post by: Amenhotep Bakari-Sellers on November 19, 2015, 12:21:13 PM Kasich or Pataki. Rubio, is a tea patier, who supports Obamacare repeal, but favors immigration. Kasich or Pataki arent going anywhere, though.
Title: Re: Which candidate from the opposing party would you rather have win? Post by: I support Sanders on November 19, 2015, 01:53:14 PM Pataki - Last Rockefeller Republicans left. lol at Pataki being a Rockefeller Republican. Pataki is deeply conservative. Title: Re: Which candidate from the opposing party would you rather have win? Post by: Atlas Has Shrugged on November 19, 2015, 09:02:00 PM I feel the Bern in this scenario.
Title: Re: Which candidate from the opposing party would you rather have win? Post by: wolfsblood07 on November 19, 2015, 09:12:36 PM As a Republican I would say whichever Democrat is the most conservative. Jim Webb maybe but now he is out. Joe Biden 2nd, because he is qualified and competent, but of course he is out at least for now. Hillary is a liar and a Clinton but she is not a full blown socialist like Sanders. Of the 3 still running, Martin O'Malley just because he may be the least awful, with Hillary 2nd.
Title: Re: Which candidate from the opposing party would you rather have win? Post by: Lief 🗽 on November 19, 2015, 09:13:39 PM Hillary Clinton
Title: Re: Which candidate from the opposing party would you rather have win? Post by: Fritz on November 19, 2015, 10:35:29 PM Kasich seems the most reasonable.
