Hillary changed party's and changed her perspective on issues to the right wing.( It probably wouldn't happen) map maps. The democratic primary still happened, John McCain died of heart attack and Clinton won at the RNC. (I know never would happen but just think if it would)

Ha ha ha, wow. Quite a scenario to imagine. As much as I hate to admit it, Obama would win in a landslide. Hillary would be labeled as a sore loser, a hypocrite, and the media would just have a field day trashing her worse than they did in the primary. She would get personally attacked worse by the media (left-wing and right-wing) than Sarah Palin did. The Republican Party, all wings, would be devastated. The socially conservative/Religious Right wing of the party would probably vote for the Constitution Party candidate Chuck Baldwin, whereas the more moderate/Rockefeller wing would vote for Libertarian Bob Barr. If she ran as a Republican, her only support would be among the die-hard Hillary Clinton supporters (myself included) and the Reagan Democrats who she won overwhelmingly in the primary. I don't know how the map would look, but she would be most competitive in Appalachia - West Virginia and Kentucky. Add Arkansas and I think these would be the only three states she would be competitive in, well aside from the GOP bastions like Utah, Wyoming, Idaho, Alaska, Oklahoma and Alabama, but then again, it's Hillary Clinton, so who knows!

I know who'd get my unanimous support. Hillary!!!



Hillary wins because of the south's crush on the clintons. Same goes for New York.

The Far-rght would rather vote Hillary then Obama. I know I would.

I really wonder how the third party vote would look like.

Obama : 50%, 293 E.V.
Clinton : 48%, 245 E.V.


But the contrary would also be interesting. Here is my map :



Clinton : 50%, 306 E.V.
Obama : 48%, 232 E.V.

Hillary would win.

She'd get all McCain voters + 20% of Obama 2008 voters.

Politics are not maths, that isn't so simple.

This just might be the most retarded what-if scenario ever.

Fury at both parties nominating liberals would lead to a large conservative third party campaign, leading in turn to no electoral majority.
