Title: Former President Bill Clinton vs Governor Mitt Romney Post by: Warren 4 Secretary of Everything on August 07, 2012, 05:53:08 PM In comparison to the Romney-Obama matchup, how would former President Clinton be doing right now if Obama gave him the nomination? And let's say to further build a Midwestern Democratic Coalition and strengthen him in the south, he chose Montana Governor Brian Schweitzer as his running mate. My Guess:

Former President Bill Clinton / Former Governor Ted Strickland (Dem) - 55% PV, 417 EV Former Governor Mitt Romney / Congressman Paul Ryan (Rep) - 43% PV, 121 EV Former Governor Gary Johnson / Jim Gray (Lib) - 1%, 0 EV Title: Re: Former President Bill Clinton vs Governor Mitt Romney Post by: Mister Mets on August 10, 2012, 11:25:13 AM It's complicated. Clinton's approval ratings are impressive, but the process of becoming the nominee would hurt him with Republicans and Independents.
