Go to the grammar link and look it up: To determine whether to use whoever or whomever, here is the rule: him + he = whoever him + him = whomever Examples: Give it to whoever/whomever asks for it first. Give it to him. He asks for it first. Therefore, Give it to whoever asks for it first. http://www.grammarbook.com/grammar/whoever.asp --- In the same sense: I will be voting for whoever wins the GOP PRIMARY. I will be voting for him. He wins the GOP Primary. Therefore whoever is correct. The reason for this is while it is an object of a preposition, it is also the subject of a dependent clause. no gnu taxes  posted on  2011-09-14   13:52:50 ET  Reply   Untrace   Trace   Private Reply   #55.

You are correct and I did get one bass ackwards. "I will be voting for whoever [sic] wins the GOP PRIMARY. [paraphrase] I will be voting for he who wins the GOP PRIMARY. Whoever is correct. The whole clause is the object. I believe it is a nominative (or noun) clause. nolu chan  posted on  2011-09-14   16:05:15 ET  Reply   Untrace   Trace   Private Reply   #56.

To: war (#56) I'll invoke Rule #3...whatever sounds right IS right...and still declare victory... I suppose the only actual purpose of a language is to communicate and sometimes the "proper" way just sounds wrong, e.g., It is I. People just don't talk that way. Another example is the rule against ending a sentence with a preposition, of which Churchill (supposedly) remarked, "That is a rule up with which I will not put." nolu chan  posted on  2011-09-14   18:15:45 ET  Reply   Untrace   Trace   Private Reply   #65.

To: war (#65) Look, douche bag, you are the one who comes on here professing to be an expert in EVERYTHING, including grammar and is constantly correcting everybody's grammar as if you were an expert. You are the one who kept it going by simply not admitting you were wrong when it it was obvious you were. You know what? You are a fucking asshole not worth responding to anymore and has been proven, totally without credit. I have never filtered anyone before, but you will now be my first. Bye Bye, you worthless loser. no gnu taxes  posted on  2011-09-15   9:53:23 ET  Reply   Untrace   Trace   Private Reply   #69.
