I don't want LBJ.

Goddamn DemoRATS, first you destroy my party and now this? I'm voting Ike to punish you.

I'm ugly.


Okay.

Now I won't vote for the Democrats ever again.

Happy?

Are you a 2-year-old kid or what? Huh

Was I the one to yell over a game? I think not.

But certainly not this. I'll vote for DDE over Random Southern Democrat.

It's not Random Southern Democrat, it's Happy! At least I think it is.

I could live with Happy, but I wouldn't want to end up supporting Faubus or Patterson.

I thought you said you were voting Ike, not Happy.

Anyways, folks, who do we want to nominate for the totally-not-racist Southern Democrats ticket? I fully support Chandler/Carvel, but there's also Sen. Absalom Willis Robertson (father of Pat Robertson), who we could run with Barry Goldwater for VP (bit of irony, given Goldwater's opinion of Absalom's son).

Hey, I've got a cool idea: the vote is within one or two votes, MS, AL, and SC go to Unpledged Electors, and the election goes to the House. The Democrats reach a compromise with the Southerners to give Chandler the VP spot, and we get a Presidential administration of The Happy Warrior and Happy Chandler!

^^^Happy/Happy '60!

Except it's MS, AL, LA, MI (not sure why, got .02%), and a faithless guy in OK.

I still like Ike.  But shouldn't his home state be Pennsylvania?

The atlas' election archives showed his home state as New York, and I'm always willing to trust Dave Leip and his maps.

I believe it is Kansas. However, I'm always happy for a New York President.

Eisenhower moved to Pennsylvania after he left office.  When he was president, his home state was considered to be New York.  (I believe that he grew up in Kansas)

I would vote for HHH/LBJ, because I like HHH so much.  If it was LBJ/HHH, I would probably vote for Ike/Smith.

I'm hoping Smith wins the primary in 64, but I'm not sure of a good running mate.  I'm thinking maybe Romney, Rockefeller, or Nixon.  Any suggestions? - especially from people that would actually support that ticket!

I would support a Smith/Goldwater ticket, although I would prefer it if it was the other way around. Wink

HHH.  The Huohrey of 1960 was awesome.  The Humphrey that was Vice-President and the Presidential nominee in '68 was the dishonorable schmuck.
