Yes, I actually believe it. Roy Moore has to win exactly ONE conservative state to throw the Presidential election to Congress. He has already won a statewide race in Alabama and W has been urinating on his base for some time now. W would have to run a national campaign. Moore could focus all his resources in the three or four states where he has the best chance to win.

It absolutely could happen. Once it goes to Congress, it is entirely possible that vengance-minded Democrats would vote with a handfull of disaffected Conservative Congressmen to award Moore the Presidency.

Once people realize that they only have to propel Moore to victory in one state in order to give him a shot at it, his odds go WAY up. It really is not that hard to understand.

That is true. Suppose this were 2000 again and the Dem got 266 votes like Gore did winning the same states (yes, the census changed that around a little but just suppose for the moment). Bush got 271 in 2000. If Moore had run and won in the most likely state to support him, Alabama, that would have put Bush at 262 to 266 to 9 and the election would have gone into the House. It gets even wierder from there though as a partisan majority does NOT guarantee any candidate a victory there. Elections in the House give each state congressional delegation 1 single vote for a total of 50 votes cast for president. I do not know for certain who holds a majority in the delegations of each state, but some are definately split and if this had happened in 2000 Bush's home state of Texas would have actually voted for Gore!
