This thread is to gauge levels of enthusiasm about your candidate of choice. So pick the candidate who you most hope receives the nomination along with a number range that describes how excited you are about her/his potential presidency. 0-3 is lukewarm, 4-6 mildly enthusiastic, 7-10 you are thrilled with this candidate. I'm not including Chaffee/Webb, ain't nobody got time for that, but feel free to post about them below if you must lol. Also, let me know if I need to clarify--I am not articulating this as well as I'd hoped.

Any lack of enthusiasm that I have right now is due to the fact that the election is more than a year away. A lot can change in a year. Ask me again in July.
My enthusiasm for Clinton is still middling. However, my passion for making sure that none of the chucklefucks currently running for the Republican nomination gets elected is strong and she's the best candidate for that job.

yea know, it put 7-10 on HRC. I have my doubts & reservations. I'm not about to go campagn for her, but I did think about donating. I'm most excited about the Dems themselves- that they can really shut down the GOP & I think we have a darn good chance of winning this unless something dramatic changes with the circus going on with the GOP nomination process.
Before the debate it was 4-6 Bernie, now it's 7-10. In my opinion he's the only candidate who brings integrity to the table, AND I agree with most of what he says (he's bringing up the concerns I'd already had). DH and I plan to donate, and I may campaign for him.
*Note: I voted for HRC the last time, enthusiastically; but my opinion of her has taken a dive over the years.

Honestly? I'm voting for Hilary but I'm not really enthusiastic about the election cycle. I just want some moderates back in congress and the dems to keep the white house. I'm utterly exhausted of the crazy right having control in congress.
