Here's the funny shit. If he got the Republican nomination...many on this board would pull the lever for him over Obama

Not necessarily. Better to have a known quantity idiot, than take
a chance on a squirrelly unknown idiot factor like a Ron Paul.
If the choice came down to those two, I'd probably turn my
fantasy of going to work over seas for a few years into a reality.

And that's where you'd be tragically wrong...again. What you would see in reality...not in your littlle fantasy is people either looking to 3rd party candidates or just not vote at all.

But to think that Conservatives on tis board would pull the lever for Obama because Dr. Nuts someone how stumbled his way into the nomination is not only blindingly stupid...but highlights your lack of depth of political nowledge about Conservatives.

Well said. Let's just hope that it never comes down to a choice like that.
It makes me break out in hives just thinking about it.
I'd probably go with the 3rd party.

Same here.

I have always wondered why Dr Nuts has not run for Senator. I believe he does not think he could win. As a presidential candidate, I am not so sure he could win his home state of TX.

Although, he has some good ideas, his nutty ideas and or the perception that he is squirrely is ingrained in most conservatives minds. That is my observation. His followers may think otherwise but he has zero chance of getting the nomination.

Yeah, with KBH stepping down in 2012, he could throw his hat in for that job.
But I do not think he could get elected as a Senator of Texas.

I don't think so either. Running for Prez will garner him greater financial rewards than running for Senator.
Politicians are always looking out for #1.
