    - Roll out his slate of endorsers....Steve Spurrier, Urban Meyer and Phil Fullmer....convert to Islam and marry a black woman while adopting an illegal. -- nm - Will Hunting Mar 7, 06:59 8
      - While proclaiming he's glad Dale Earnhardt died. -- nm - Will Hunting Mar 7, 07:00 7
        
        along those lines, he could have Jeff Gordon publicly support him. -- nm - Strongbad Mar 7, 07:16 1
        
        And Davey Allison...there's a reason he drove cars instead of flying planes, am I right? -- nm - Mittens Mar 7, 07:26

        heh. I was going to say 'while stating that Auburn has the best football team ever' -- nm - decline Mar 7, 07:12
        
        Nah, you risk gaining the Auburn vote. -- nm - Will Hunting Mar 7, 07:12 1
        
        Good point. -- nm - Strongbad Mar 7, 07:13
        
        And proclaiming Gen Sherman as a great american hero -- nm - eag Mar 7, 07:11
    - It would probably require a strong independent run from the right. 40-39-21 sort of result. -- nm - Don Homer Mar 7, 06:52

Ignorant question here, but I'll ask anyways. Why isn't there a democratic primary going on? Is it because there is a democratic president or does - oblique Mar 7, 05:57 15
- There's even a candidate named "Vermin Supreme". This can't be coincidence, can it? -- (link) - Roger More Mar 7, 06:17
- Obama is the only candidate on the ballot in many states, thus no need for coverage. - ty97 Mar 7, 05:59 7
  - 2004 was similar - all coverage was Kerry, Edwards, and company. GWB was a given as the GOP incumbent nominee -- nm - ty97 Mar 7, 06:03 6
    - Thanks. I figured it was something like that but also with all the general political craziness that someone might make a legitimate run at Obama -- nm - oblique Mar 7, 06:06 5
      - As a Democrat? They'd pretty much ruin their career. -- nm - mara Mar 7, 06:54
      - The DNC wouldn't let that happen -- nm - decline Mar 7, 06:16 3
        
        It's not as much a matter of letting it happen or not. It would be foolhardy and a total waste of time and money. -- nm - Don Homer Mar 7, 06:19 2
        
        right. What I meant was that if some momo wanted to try, he wouldn't get any support from the DNC and so no one (of any consequence) will try -- nm - decline Mar 7, 06:22 1
        
        gotcha. -- nm - Don Homer Mar 7, 06:26
- Most states are doing caucuses, to turn the "vote" into an organizational meeting. -- nm - nubby Mar 7, 05:59 3
  - I don't agree with "most". It's the same as it was 4 years ago, except obviously far less attention on the Dem. side since the presidential - Don Homer Mar 7, 06:00 2
    - I guess I'm myopic. My state divides the Presidential primary and all other primaries. -- nm - nubby Mar 7, 06:22 1
      - each state is different. There's probably like 30 different ways that it is done. -- nm - Don Homer Mar 7, 06:25
- There is. -- nm - Don Homer Mar 7, 05:58 1
  - In fact two posts down below about it. Kucinich lost his primary for Congress, and a nutcase opponent managed 1 delegate vs Obama in OK. -- nm - Don Homer Mar 7, 05:59
