Can't answer the first question until AFTER the Primary Elections.
It WILL MATTER. You can have someone who will eliminate what remains of your freedoms as listed in the Bill of Rights, (raise taxes, eliminate religious freedom, freedom of speech, the right to bear arms etc.) or you can have someone who follows the Constitution, but most likely the latter won't exist, so do your best to elect some who comes CLOSE to defending your rights.

A Republican.
Hilary wants everyone poor and cant handle debates. She will end up having an affair with some intern. People just want her to win so that she will be the first female president.
Obama was a rookie senator before he ran and he too cannot handle debates. He just wants to be the first black president. He is a muslim who says that he is a christian. Where was his hand during the pledge of allegence? where is the respect?

I'm thinking that I might vote for the rather reluctant to run Al Gore as a write in candidate.
Though I'm not opposed to a Obama-Clinton 2008 ticket.
And as a member of the League of Women Voters
YES IT DOES MATTER IF YOU VOTE! SO JUST DO IT! AND IF YOU DON'T VOTE AND YOU WANT TO COMPLAIN - TALK TO THE HAND!

not sure yet. I will vote and it probably won't matter. but when I do vote and even if the person I vote for doesn't win I can complain and say I didn't vote for him (you did)! just like I'm doing now with Bush (cause I sure didn't vote for him)
