Not me personally, but it would change it for a lot of McCain voters.

From "Obama" to "no one". (It's possible that I would be supporting McCain if he ran his campaign in a different fashion from his current strategy.)

Edit: Wait, do you mean McCain v Clinton or a McCain/Clinton ticket?

Oh..wait...yeah, I think I definitely misunderstood. I thought you were suggesting a McCain-Hillary ticket.

No, I'd still support McCain just as strongly.

No, no I meant McCain v. Hillary Tongue

And it would change who I support.  I want to see the GOP lose badly and rebuild, and I would trust Hillary to run the country.  The thing is the time I want the GOP to lose the Dems put up the scariest and worst candidate they have in years.  I probably would have support Kerry this time around

No!  And rebuild DWTL into what, and what the GOP actually be rebuilt in the way you want it? If you want to tear something down, you had better have a good idea as to what will replace it.

Yes, I'd probably vote for the Pansexual party or someone crazy like that.

In that case, it would have no effect on me, and very little overall.

It wouldn't change for me.  Right now I'm leaning toward McCain and I'd still be leaning his way. 

The thing is, I wonder how many Obama supporters would gravitate to McCain?  My wife is supporting Obama, and when I asked her about McCain v. HRC, she said she might find a reason to stay home that day.  She's not crazy about either of them but McCain's VP choice might sway her.

I'd write-in Obama or something if Minnesota was safe Hillary (as it likely would be.)

Now that it is clear what sort of "change" Obama represents, this wouldn't change anything.

I would be more likely to vote Democratic, but still vote for McCain.
