Title: 1860 Post by: © tweed on August 26, 2005, 02:05:26 PM Not a what-if per se, but I don't see it causing a major backlash.
I started it because I saw a surprising amount of Douglas votes in the 'who would you have voted for' thread in the History section, more than usual.

I am a personal fan of Mclellan, so i dont think there was anyone the reps. couldve run to make me vote otherwise

Title: Re: 1860 Post by: Colin on August 26, 2005, 02:56:11 PM Bell all the way. A simple platform that I can agree with. Protect the constitution and keep the union together at all costs.
Title: Re: 1860 Post by: Beefalow and the Consumer on August 26, 2005, 03:47:51 PM Bell all the way. A simple platform that I can agree with. Protect the constitution and keep the union together at all costs. Lincoln. The costs of keeping the Union together would have been too high in moral terms. This assuming I didn't have the hindsight of knowing that voting Lincoln would have cost over 600,000 lives. Title: Re: 1860 Post by: PBrunsel on August 26, 2005, 05:54:48 PM Douglas. The people shall rule the territories!

Title: Re: 1860 Post by: Erc on September 14, 2005, 05:34:58 PM Douglas. By Far.
Shame he died in July 1861 though. |
