A rough guess, immagining a (relatively) competitive race :



Taft : 39%, 286 EVs
Wilson : 32%, 181 EVs
Roosevelt : 26%, 71 EVs
Debs : 1%

Taft polls extremely well in the libertarian West, and also gets good results in the Northeast. Even though he doesn't reach McCain's levels in the South, he easily carries most of the States there. Wilson's moderately-progressive rhetoric attracts the Southwest, and he polls reasonably well in the Norhteast and in the outer South. Roosevelt is too radical to gather much support outside the most liberal States and States with a populist leaning like WV.

Wilson was, of course, a hardcore racist so he'd do pretty poorly with most traditional Democratic demographics and would do pretty poorly all across America except the South.

Roosevelt taking WV in 2012 wouldnt happen. They seemingly moved to the right-alot.

Roosevelt has a plurality but no majority; it goes to the House.
