2000 scenario.

This map is way off. Man, you really like living in a fantasy world where every democratic ticket wins the election scenarios don't you.

And you're a Republican hack who can not imagine an America where freedom and equality exist

I think you guys need placed into a closet and fight this out!

A subforum in this board for hacks would be a great idea. And very popular.

I'm not a hack am I?

Borderline.

Though I was refering to gporter and WarnerforSenate08 for that!

Powell wins 317-221

Probably the most logical one map here.

Gore does slightly better in the south like Tennessee and Clinton's home state of Arkansas however most swing states go to Powell. Nunn is a good VP pick. He makes Georgia competitive but loses the states by less than 2%. Florida needs no recount as Powell wins the states by at least 5%.

I have to say though Powell has a rather weak VEEP. I'm shocked Walter didn't put Rod Grams in this scenario. You should have done my Rod Grams version of Bob Smith in there!

Maybe it's his broken hand!

I am going to have to break with popular opinion and go with a big Gore victory.

I do not believe the south would go with two northeast candidates like Powell and Almond. 

Simply put, the south would not cast their votes in large enough numbers for a black candidate.  Powell would have attracted a larger share of the black vote, however, by in large, the black voters would remain predominantly loyal to the Democrats.

Gore is as well able to win in traditionally Democratic states in the north, midwest, and west coast. 

Gore/Nunn                 363
Powell/Almond           175

WOW!

You don't think Powell would play big to swing states like Florida, Michigan, Pennsylvania, Minnesota?

I agree Powell is not as strong as Bush or McCain would perfrom in the south but Powell probably would do better with swing states and independent voters.
