Perot/Cuomo in 1992

(1/1)

Beefalow and the Consumer:
Perot somehow persuades Mario Cuomo to join his ticket (perhaps as a way of saying F.U. to politics as usual), giving legitimacy to his candidacy, and to make him more appealing to moderate liberals. Could Perot/Cuomo actually win a few states? Would enough liberal votes be taken from Clinton to swing the election back to Bush?

It would not happen but could be really interesting

I would think Cuomo would take away a lot of Clinton's thunder. Perot/Cuomo would stand for fiscal responsibility and moderation. Although Cuomo might turn off a lot of conservatives, who may vote Bush instead. I think Bush does considerably better, winning MT and NV, and Perot wins NH and ME, but Clinton still wins the Presidency.

ShapeShifter:
A Perot/Cuomo ticket is like a Bush Jr/Clinton ticket.
