Here's a new scenario...Let's say comming in the Democratic Convention Teddy and Jimmy's delegate totals are deadlocked and the Superdelegates begin to look for a third potential candidate. A Draft for Secretary of State Ed Muskie succeedes, and both the President and the Senator decide that he's a strong compromise candidate. To shore up the south, and questions of his age, he chooses 42 year old Senator Sam Nunn of Georgia to balance the ticket.

So how would the election ago, according to some polls Muskie was running even with Ronnie in the Summer. And with it being a moderate ticket, would Anderson endorse? Could the Democrats win a second term?
