It all depends upon which side's base holds. Anderson was very liberal, and there were a lot of angry Ted Kennedy supporters who would not vote for Carter under any circumstances. The media tried to tell us that our side was made up of Gerald Ford Republicans who wouldn't vote for a nutty extremist like Reagan. They were dead wrong.

In 1992, our coalition collapsed because Perot appealed to veterans and white males at least as well as Bush did. Bush was left with the Christians and little else. Hence Clinton was elected, running as a "New Democrat" elected by "old liberals."

McCain as a third party candidate would not have the issues that could pull our people away from the GOP nominee, mainly borders and activist judges. In fact, we would be on fire against him because of this vote. Most of here in AZ know what a scoundrel he is, but he doesn't need conservative support to win. He gets all those Dims and Indy's to vote for him and the Democrats cooperate by not even running a race. They love the guy and know he's one of them.

I vote Libertarian against McCain every time. Does me a lot of good.

Nonsense. Bush lost in 1992 because he lost the social conservatives. Thats why Pat ran against him. Bush ran in 1988 as Reagan Part II, and he governed as Ford Part II.

As for McCrazy. You can judge a politician by his friends. The Media and liberals love McCain and Hate repeat Hate Delay and GWB. Guess why?

Why did Kerry offer McCrazy the VP slot if he is such a good Republican?

Why does a Democratic operative like Matthews worship McCrazy & has him on his show 50 times a year?

McCrazy should just turn Democrat like Jeffords.
