Winners:

Walker would be RL-MI-PA-ME-2
Jeb! would be RL-MI +CO, NV, NH
Kasich would be RL + CO, NV, NH, ME-AL, MN. VA is within 1% but I still think Clinton carries it.
Rubio would be RL-MI-PA-WI-ME-2, + CO, NV (274-264 Rubio)

Two Scenarios for Rand. Scenario A is where his unorthodox positions and activities win very little from the Obama column and actually weaken the GOP in Appalachia:


Scenario B is one in which he reshapes the coalitions with his views, keeping down the Appalachian bleeding and making new appeals no other GOP candidate could:

(Maine Split is 3-1 R)




Cruz has no appeal to moderates or to populists, and so would lose. Romney + IA, FL would be the map.
I agree with the OP on Christie and Huckabee.
Gilmore - we have to remember that in the event he somehow got nominated, he wouldn't be the gadfly joke he is in RL. The 2008 Virginia Senate Race is not a good measurement because Mark Warner was quite popular from his time as Governor and was not really seen as much of a partisan or political figure. Also it was a D wave year. That being said, he's basically just a Poor Man's Cruz so to speak, so 2012+IA is my guess.
