I once read that by 1976, Conservatives felt so desperate, they were actually considering running a Reagan/Wallace ticket.

Other possible VP's:
John Connally
Paul Laxalt
William F Buckley
James L Buckley
Barry Goldwater
Barry Goldwater Jr.

I heard that too - it was on a special on FOX.

Anywho, Wallace probably maximises Reagan's potential, electoral-vote wise, but marginalizes him to just the South.

Goldwater is too old, but the rest of the picks are low-key, yet plausible.

My take, on a Reagan/Wallace ticket:



Reagan does well for an independent candidate with no apparatii - Reagan gets the Deep South, while Rockefeller wins Nixonland.

Tossups: Arizona, New Mexico, Missouri, Arkansas, Texas, Alaska.

Why are there so many "I-MA"'s on here? Is it because Libertas got banned?

Because wormguy and Dallasfan are actually from Massachusetts and must've switched parties or something; as for Han, I don't know.

The former individual's theory is rather more credible than the latter's.

Cathcon is correct - I'm actively involved (IRL) with the GOP and content for now.

That may change, depending on how the next few years unfold, but it's unlikely.
