Perhaps one of you can think of another Republican candidate who would have won but I can't think of any.

I think Ron Paul could have (if he got GOP nomination!). Guiliani possibly. But surely not any shrubs.

Neither of the Pauls are worth a bucket of warm piss and both are the antithesis of a GOPer of any stripe.

Rudy could have beaten wee Barry in '08, but the vicious campaign against him, before he even threw his hat into the ring and the damned PURISTS, especially here, were the ones who made certain that he wouldn't make it to the nomination.
