Paul Wellstone/Bill Bradley

If Wellstone loses the nomination, than Wellstone for VP.

Senator Napoleon, are of the same opinion on this matter?

Is there any method that is technicaly sound to policing proxies without banning people unintentionally from participating in the game?

Is it even possible to unintentionally ban someone from participating?  Also, I'm not sure I understand the question (apologies if the second one was also only directed to Senator Napoleon).

Option 1 (normal)

So I guess all the Nader voters will decide the election if and when this goes to the House. This'll be fun.

Actually Cuomo is winning by three votes, so it is far from guaranteed that this will even go to the House

At this point, I see little practical use for the office and would prefer to eliminate it. 

Aye

Aye

Congrats

Cuomo would win in the house since Nader's votes would go to him.

What do you mean "Cuomo would win in the House"? We are the House. Nader's votes will only go to Cuomo if they want to.

You're right, my bad.

Cuomo would win in the house since Nader's votes would go to him.

Do the Democrats hold any statewide office in Alabama anymore?

I don't think so, at least not statewide elective office.  I believe that there are only two left in the Deep South--Senator Landrieu of Louisiana and the Mississippi Attorney General.

Bill Nelson

Am I really the only Democrat who didn't vote in this?

Alan Grayson, Dennis Kucinich, Joe Lieberman, Max Baucus, Maxine Waters, Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson Sr., Jesse Jackson Jr., Andrew Cuomo, Jon Corzine, Christine Quinn, Mike Oliverio, Michael Jackson (if he is still active in Louisiana politics), Sheila Jackson-Lee, Kwame Kilpatrick, Ray Nagin, Eric Massa, William Lacy Clay Jr., Emmanuel Cleaver, Barbara Lee, Pete Stark, Joe Baca, Charles Barron, Laura Richardson, Andrei Cherny, Marion Berry (the Washington D.C. one), Michelle Rhee, and the list goes on.  If anyone can't find plenty of awful people in their own political party, it means they aren't looking hard enough

New York.

I think it is too early to say much about this race beyond that it will probably be a competitive one.  I remember a time when John Kasich had no shot of winning reelection and I also remember a time when Hilary Clinton was a "lock" for the 2008 Democratic Presidential nomination.  Toomey would probably win if the election were today, but it isn't, it is in 2016.  On a different note, does anyone have any thoughts on what's next for Josh Shapiro?  He seems like a real up-and-comer, but I'm not sure what opportunities he has to advance (at least in a statewide race).  I suppose he could run for Schwartz's seat, but my understanding is that he isn't expected to run.

In the next few weeks I will be introducing the first of several major education reform bills that I plan to introduce, campaign finance reform legislation, stronger ethics rules for elected officials, and legislation to help protect Atlasians' civil liberties by banning warrantless wiretaps.  I have never pretended to have a monopoly on good ideas, so I would like to encourage anyone with concerns, ideas, suggestions, etc about any of these issues (especially education reform) to shoot me a PM and I promise that I will take your ideas under careful consideration.  I may or may not end up incorporating them into my proposal, but I will look at them with an open mind.  I hope at least some folks will be kind enough to share their thoughts because as confident as I am in my ideas, I firmly believe that all of us have something valuable to contribute to Atlasia (regardless of whether or not we agree on the issues)

I remember reading a little bit about this issue in the past and I wholeheartedly support this bill.

What is going on?

Pick me coach!

Oh, wow. I didn't Clarence had a heart attack. You will be in my thoughts.

I'd want him in my survivor group in the event of a zombie apocalypse. 

Well, onto 1996 as it is. Really though, is all this pageantry necessary? I mean there's got to be a point where the voters just wouldn't care and assumed the outcome was predetermined and not give a damn who was president.

Oh, don't worry, I think Nader will be a force to be reckoned with in 2000 if not 1996.

2004 proved Ralph Nader to be an egomaniac with delusions of grandeur, which is sad because he used to be a great man.  He's like John McCain, he lost his dignity running for President.
