Title: McMillan vs. Obama
Post by: Taft on May 28, 2012, 08:12:37 PM
Just for the heck of it, I wonder how Jimmy McMillan would have done if he'd run as a Democrat this time.  I know he didn't do so to avoid primarying Obama...but I'm wondering "what if" here: Say that he'd decided to get on the ballot in a lot of places (WV included), saying "If Obama can't take a little constructive criticism about how **** high rent is, he's got bigger problems than me."

In particular, in spite of the fact that he's black, how would he have done in those odd-and-end southern primaries that Obama got egg on his face in?
