Just wondering, with the variety of choices, who you would support.

Bush/Cheney: the conservative republican ticket

Guiliani/McCain: the moderate republican ticket

Kerry/Edwards: the liberal democratic ticket

Miller/Byrd: the moderate democratic ticket*

*Whereas Zell Miller is basically the lone conservative Democrat, Robert Byrd leans more to the liberal side. However, they are friends and work well together, which is why I put them together and called them moderate.

I chose Guiliani/McCain because I think they would be most able to work with the Democratic leadership to pass bipartisan bills.

Bush/Cheney are just too despised by liberals and a lot of independents to be able to govern a nation that is pretty evenly split.

Kerry/Edwards is the same as Bush/Cheney except on the opposite end of the political spectrum.

Miller/Byrd I really put in there to see if anyone would actually vote for them. I like Zell Miller, personally. But Robert Byrd is kind of insane.

Guiliani/McCain, or Guiliani/Powell or Powel/McCain, would make great tickets against Kerry/Edwards in 2008.

I am supporting the Kerry/Edwards ticket primarily for their domestic policies and strong pro-union stance. I supported Kucinich in the Primaries, and it seems as if Kerry is using some of Kucinich's platforms.

None of the above, 'cause they STILL want to take all my money.

Vote LIBERTARIAN!!!! That would be Michael Badnarik, if you didn't know already....
