I actually thought Huntsman would do better with the Pugs than he did...you cannot go broke lo-balling the character and brainpower of the Repugnant primary voter...

I agree. I don't see any Democrat Lady worth her salt on a ticket like that. Women have now figured out how to shake the tree of politics so their needs are taken serious and will vote according. This is a very broad sisterhood, much larger than Paul's army of pot heads. I think if Santorum gets to make a speech at Tampa, it will have a larger effect on the outcome then Paul's support.

Huntsman is an appealing person, obviously smart. I like him. As a candidate, though, he struck out with Republicans of nearly all stripes.

I find it hard to imagine any prominent Democratic woman hooking up with him, ending her political career.

My guess is Huntsman would draw more votes from Romney than from Obama, but that's just a guess. In that scenario, I think Obama still wins.

Thanks for clarifying.

well, no.

I think the americans elect ticket will be huntsman and some democratic woman, per their rules.

Some guy named Ackerman is walking point on the money.

I don't actually foresee any electoral votes other than for the tweedles, altho intra state pluralities may be nudged.

certainly no House Hi-jinks.

And aside from Friedman, what are the names behind Americans Elect? Where is the money? The candidates? What's the ticket? Paul-Bloomberg? Bloomberg-Friedman? I thought we'd already disposed of this third-party nonsense.

If Romney were smarter or bolder than he is, he'd make Paul his running mate. Then things might get interesting. But Obama would still win.

Help me figure out what you're musing about here, jolly. You don't appear to fear that Ron Paul will somehow snatch the Republican nomination, but that a third party will coalesce around him, and this will somehow appeal to crazies like yourself on both the left and the right. Paul will win enough states to deny Obama an electoral-college majority, throwing the choice of president to Congress. Do I have that much right? You're smoking bad stuff, man. All but two states are winner-take-all. Their electoral votes will go to either Obama or Romney. Where Paul does do surprisingly well, he'll simply cut into Romney's support -- and that state will go to Obama. If he does win a single state,it will be one that normally goes Republican. Obama landslide. End of story.
