Come up with a plausible scenario for this:

[Kingpoleon]

359: Christie

In an alternate TL, Tim Pawlenty runs again in 2010 for Governor, adding Patricia Anderson to his ticket. He becomes more successful in the primaries, winning the Midwest and the Mid-Atlantic for a grand coalition against Gingrich and Huntsman.

When I have Rubio drop out after NH, with most of his Tea Partiers going Cruz and the rest to Kasich, I get this map:

Pretty close three-way race. IMO, Kasich and Trump would dominate the Rules Committee, but Kasich and Cruz have the most experienced infrastructure. Trump and Cruz narrowly lead in delegates, in that order.

[Kingpoleon]

Kent, I would assume a realignment, probably in the 1970s, but it could be as far back as the 1920s or 1930s.

That's one mega realignment there son.

Do you care to compare the 1976 map and the 1988 map? Very big realignment in twelve years there.

Feingold/O'Malley would be a decently strong ticket. If Perez replaced a retiring Senator Cardin, I margins a Feingold/Perez ticket would be very strong, if somewhat eastern based.
