WalterMitty (R) vs. Howard Dean (D)

Then there's the people who just vote for whoever has an "R" next to their name, which is enough to carry much of the Midwest and South.

Thats why I chose option 2. I'd vote for Dean but Mitty would win because he's a Republican. To most people, it won't matter what is beliefs are.

id win mn, wi, and nh

LOL! Do you know crap about my state? It's very pro-union and pro-gun and currently strongly anti-war. In what way do you have more appeal here than Bush? Same with Wisconsin. NH is also very pro-gun.

MN and WI are pro-gun?  Screw that. Guns are bad. That was one issue where I disagreed with Dean, but I thought it would be a big help if he was ever in a general election.

Also about 25% of Minnesotans are fundamentalist Christians.

Thats terrible! Please tell me you're exaggerating. I didn't think there could be that many in a state that regularly votes Democrat. Are they in the rural counties in the south and west of the state or are they concentrated in the exurban counties around the Twin Cities?
