2008: Paul v/s Clinton

[DownWithTheLeft]

With more name recognition, Ron Paul has a shot to win this.  The dislikes are incredibly high on Hillary so no way he gets less than 45%.  He also is a candidate that would fire up his base and certainly bring over people from the other side of the aisle.  Paul selects Huckabee as his running mate touting his flat tax proposal, and Hillary picks Richardson.  Final result:

No way Paul takes CA.

I think he wins a lot of the ultra-liberal vote in areas like San Francisco, taking something like 30% in San Francisco.  Hillary's high disapprovals allow him to seek a huge upset here.
