  1. My fear is that California is already doing this and yet the Democrats seem to increase their majority every election.
  2. I would be willing to bet these three geniuses did not show up to vote for any candidate.
  3. Further proof there should be a license to reproduce.
  4. True but states that do not normally see Presidential Candidates during the general election might actually see them.
  5. Actually what I was thinking was 538 still 435 for each member of the house, 100 two each for each senator and the three already allotted to DC. (Sorry my high school government course was a few decades ago) Each congressional districts vote would be up for grabs, the candidiate with the most vote for that district wins that EC vote. The votes representing the senators would be awarded to the candidate who wins the state's popular vote.
  6. Good stuff Rob. I would like to add a few more points. Find the best candidates to run in different parts of the country. The Democrats have excelled in finding candidates that can win elections in Republican Areas. See Jim Matheson in Utah, as well as Tester in Montana and Heitkamp in North Dakota, Romney won those states by 50, 13 and 20 points. Stop demonizing candidates who some they feel are RINOs or not conservative enough. If they had done that in the past two elections Lugar would have cruised in Indiana, Castle would have won in Delaware in 2010. The Hispanic Vote is the key to the party's future. In the House of Representatives Jamie Herrera Beulter with Marco Rubio as a Senate Co Sponsor should introduce a comprehensive immigration reform bill, including amnesty and a guest worker program for the 113th Congress to vote on. Make this the most important issue for Republicans in the next Congress. Finally if you want to stop being labeled as the party of the White Guy, stop nominating them. The Republicans have two Hispanic Governors Susan Martinez of New Mexico and Brian Sandoval of Nevada. The same number of Hispanic Senators, one a piece and more female Governors. Yet most of the general population only sees two white guys on the ticket. In 2016 the Republicans should nominate the first completely non white presidential ticket in history. Some ideas would be Rubio/Martinez or Rubio/Sandoval. The party needs to adapt before they go the way of the Whigs.
  7. I think Chan would be a great OC, because it would mean he would be someplace else besides Buffalo!!
  8. What about making every EC Vote up for grabs based on congressional district? The winner of the popular vote per state gets the two EC votes representing each state's senators. That would put every state in play while preserving the rights of small states. The District of Columbia would get a single EC Vote as well.
  9. Can see the electoral college falling this way. A 12 point win in the popular vote equals a landside in the EC, so this is not happening.
  10. Bob Dole and Jack Kemp in 1996. I think that is the last time a Presidential Candidate has been to WNY for a rally during the general election
  11. Are we placing bets on which one shoots his eye out?
  12. That is awesome.
  13. I would like to see him one year with a talented QB
  14. The lawyer is kinda of hot as well
