Right wing blogs weigh in on the big issues of the day

John Hawkins recently took a poll of right wing bloggers to see where they stood on issues like embryonic stem cell research, an Iraq timeline, etc. Here are the results from one of the more interesting questions:

7) If we absolutely had to have a President chosen out of the Big 3 Democratic contenders, which one would you most prefer to see as the POTUS.

A) Hillary Clinton (19) — 59%
B) John Edwards (5) — 16%
C) Barrack Obama (8) — 25%

For the record, yours truly picked Barack Obama. Hillary hates the military and for that I could never support her, and I simply detest John “$400 hair cuts” Edwards as I think he is the epitome of a master snake oil salesman.

You can read the rest of the results here.

BTW, what would your answer be to question 7?

May God forgive me, but I would have to say Hillary. The ONLY reason I say that is, even though she detests the military, she has had some experience around national security matters. When it comes down to it, I don’t think Edwards or Obama would do well in the national security arena.

While Hillary would still be a disaster, I think she would do a better job in that area.

Yeccch…what a revolting choice.

I don’t think Obama’s any more pro-military than either of the other two, so that’s not a factor for me.

If I had to, I’d have to agree with NC Cop here. Hillary may hate the military, but she’s got the tendency to get shrill and hysterical on the stump. That makes it far easier to rally opposition to her. Think of it this way: both Hillary and Obama would press for policies that would seriously harm national security. But Obama would do it in a style that’s almost soothing. That would make it far harder to awaken the American public to the danger.

Oh my God NC Cop, to even have to make that choice is enough to gag a maggot.
Breck boy and obama are way too inexperienced but hillary, even though she does have some world experience, she is a I wouldn’t go in until I had the UN behind us and that just don’t fly.
May God have mercy on us all.

I’d hate to have any of them as president, but if I were picking the lesser of three evils, it would be Barack Hussein Obama. I’m afraid that John Edwards as President would be not only furthest to the left, but best able to get his programs passed — and the last thing we need is socialized medicine in this country. And I just plain don’t trust Senatrix Clinton. Mr Obama might be trustworthy.

If I had to pick between those 3, I would pick Hillary, and I would pray she wins in a landslide. Her confidence level would be in the stratosphere. She would blah, blah, blah about mandates, and how the American People spoke. After 4 years of Hillary, her policies would destroy this country with such confidence and blind ambition that she wouldn’t even realize it. Sorta like Carter. There should be a conservative resurgence that would blast her back to Arkansas. Conservatives would be able to rebuild from the rubble and hopefully we would never have to hear the name Clinton again in our lifetimes. That is my only hope if dorr nobb #1 gets into office. It is sad to think that this country has to be destroyed, in order to save it. Just because the Republican party is spineless, and can’t provide a real leader for the people to vote for. – Lorica

Nope. What’s “funneh” is Edwards‘ obsession with his hair.

Oh, I know, because if the GOP had a candidate who was preaching about the poor and helping their “fellow man”, and he turned around and spent $400.00 on a haircut, the dems wouldn’t have ANY problem with that, right?

Man, you know, when male pattern baldness hits him he’s going to be suicidal. Rogaine by the gallon, that’s why he wants Rogaine and hair plugs included in the Dems National Health Care Plan!

Let’s face it, much like Bill Clinton’s lying, if Edwards can’t control his beauty salon tabs, he ain’t gonna be able to balance a budget. – Lorica
