“There are both worthy men and women on the left to support.”

There is no “left” left in the Democratic Party. Let’s hope a viable third party comes to the rescue. And fast.

The Green party would be viable if people would stop being chickenshits and vote for them.

iGuest-

“nails, I’d vote for you in a heartbeat. Get on the ballot already!”

K, I am running as the Nazi party candidate then.

Well, someone needed to godwin this thread.

I’m emotionally threatened by these people calling themselves bears of any variety. I like bears. When I put on my brown fuzzy bathrobe, I even kinda look like one.

These women think they will earn themselves favors (less beatings) from men by acting like this.

I wonder how many states do that, Janna? Forcing people into a party is wrong on so many levels.

Well, it is for the party primary. So, I don’t think it’s too much to ask that if you’re going to vote in a party’s primary, you be part of that party.

Vote for the woman when the options are all male.

Vote for Michele Bachman. Vote for Kelly Ayotte. Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer has been great for WOC, no?

Terrifying.

Ma’Whis’Ki, I’ll be moving next week and when I register to vote with my new addy, I’ll update my party affiliation too. Thanks for the reminder.

Kali, word, word and …

“1. Vote for the most woman-friendly third party.
2. Vote for the woman when the options are all male.”

Word!

In my state you can declare undecided and vote in either Primary. You do have to declare R or D when you walk through the door to vote but you can change back to undeclared once you are done.

I’m not sure what they are going to do when two greens decide to run against each other.

So, any and all third parties are going to be automatically patriarchy-free? Doubt it. From what I hear, all manner of political movements from the far right all the way through the middle to socialists and on to the anarchists are pretty much dude-run, for the dudes, by the dudes. Ask a woman activist. She’ll tell you. The patriarchy is in play across the spectrum.

In my state, you can’t vote in primaries if you are not affiliated with either the Democrats or the Republicans. Being able to vote in primaries is important to me. So I will continue to be affiliated with the Democratic Party and vote for third parties as necessary.
