DEMOCRATS ONLY: Who would you vote for in the primary?

[Mr. Illini]

Three way primary for the Democrats in 2016.

I'd go Warren while secretly hoping that Clinton wins for practicality's sake.

[Beet]

Clinton, the strongest candidate. I don't know why anyone would pick Warren, as she would lose and bring in negative coattails that will only ensure even further conservative laws enacted in 2017.

[ShamDam]

I too would go Hillary in order to win. I understand the significance of having a legitimate primary challenge from the left -- but Elizabeth Warren doesn't cut it for me. Love her stances on policy, but to be honest I really truly don't believe she is an effective communicator of them. I don't even think she's too liberal to win a general election; she's just not Presidential material, personality-wise.

[HAnnA MArin County]

Lol at Martin O'Malley. Was he the token male selection?

Clinton, obviously.

[dmmidmi]

Winning is more important than ideological purity.

For that reason, Hildog.

[Tender Branson]

Warren (normal).

Warren would at least fire up the base and have some appeal among Indies, whereas Hillary would start with a 10 point lead right now and then collapse towards the end of the general election campaign and finish like Martha Coakley.

[Dixie Reborn]

I'm not a Democrat but if I were I would vote for Hillary because she has the best chance in the general.

[KCDem]

Warren (normal).

Warren would at least fire up the base and have some appeal among Indies, whereas Hillary would start with a 10 point lead right now and then collapse towards the end of the general election campaign and finish like Martha Coakley.

This. Though I will obviously support Hillary when she inevitably wins.

[solarstorm]

Lol at Martin O'Malley. Was he the token male selection?

Clinton, obviously.

O'Malley as a presidential candidate is a joke. No doubt. But as a VP candidate he could fire up the gay vote.

[Mehmentum]

Hillary, because I want Democrats to win.  Also, she could entice people who turned away from the Democrats during Obama's presidency.

[Kaine for Senate '18]

Obviously Hillary

[Sprouts Farmers Market ✘]

I would vote for Elizabeth Warren as she is the only competent option.

[Person Man]

Hillary. Then again, as late as the Christmas before 2008, it was Hillary last time.

[Lief 🗽]

Clinton is the only one of those three who could win a general election, so I would obviously support her.

[Free Bird]

Hillary, because I want Democrats to win.  Also, she could entice people who turned away from the Democrats during Obama's presidency.

Why

[Incipimus iterum]

Hillary Clinton because she can win.

[sentinel]

Undecided

[The Dowager Mod]

Hillary.

[Grumpier Than Uncle Joe]

If that's your primary batting order it's going to be a long 2016, but fear not, the pubs aren't putting up home run hitters either. 

[Warren 4 Secretary of Everything]

Clinton.

I like Warren, but the right would far and feather her far too easily. I feel like if she was from any state BUT Massachussetts, she'd be a fine candidate.

[Grumpier Than Thou]

Liz Warren, enthusiastically.

[Vega]

Joe Biden should definitely be on this list.

But right now, probably O'Malley or Warren.

[exopolitician]

Warren is my first choice, though I would ultimately support Hillary.

[Gass3268]

Warren, but I'd come back to support Hillary in the general.

Lol at Martin O'Malley. Was he the token male selection?

Clinton, obviously.

The forum is sexist for giving the token male only 6% of the vote.
I'm just trolling, I voted Warren.
