I’m hoping, if Mitt locks it up by March, that a genuine alternative will develop.
My analysis is that the only way the 40% conservative plurality can prevail is in a three way race.
At least, in legitimate elections. We don't really know via actual elections because fraud and vote ginning (different things, by my definition) are so significant that we've reached the point where a minority has seized power.
I'm starting to think of it in terms of a really good fake railroad bridge -- looks very real until a real train tries to cross it.
The fake bridge is Americans' supposed penchant for statism, the popularity of liberalism, as reflected in the MSM and public education. The train is reality, reality being that most Americans object to much of liberalism and statism. The illusion causes collapse, as the election of 2012 is exhibiting.
Third party? It will get 15 to 17%%, Republicans will get 29 to 31% and Obama will get 45% to win the election in 50 states(may be even in 57 states) ! Stop yelling at Romney ! It was conservatives problem of not able to go behind one single guy ! For the last 5 months, I have to switch 5 candidates and I am tired ! I am going to support Rick Sanatorum and if he looses, I will go with eventual nominee which might be Romney !
Maybe in your state. Countrywide? I want some of what you're smoking.
