I see them as equally electable as the other.
That might be the most sensible post you made on the forum. Of course neither of them are remotely electable, but the point stands....
That depends on the situation of the United States. If it's in bad economic shape (like we are in now) with extended military entanglements that many in the electorate on both sides of the spectrum both oppose, then Paul could get in.
Or a backlash by cultural conservatives en mass (ie moral majority) plus the economic parts I laid out in the Paul scenario, Palin gets in.
