2008 Election TL ( Sign Up/Discussion Thread)

[RIP Robert H Bork]

Kathleen Sebelius

Sebelius wasn't a candidate in 2008.

Anyway, I'll obviously play as Mike Huckabee. I know that my friend tmthforu94 (who is playing as Romney) hates him (very irrationally), so I have no choice but to be his arch-nemesis in this race So, I'll play as Mike.

Sebelius wasn't a candidate in 2008.

I know. She was, however, talked about as a possible candidate, and was a serious contender for the VP nomination. So, I think it's all right.

No, I don't think Sebelius was ever seen as a candidate, even potentially. She was seen as a potential running mate, but that's like letting someone play as Sarah Palin just because she ended up McCain's running mate.

The game's pretty much over, no?

I mean, only 2 people left, and only 1 of them is actually "playing". By this rate, he'll win with 90% of the vote in November.

Pretty much, another somebody wants to sign up third party before August.

Why not just give True Conservative the Democratic slot, since tb75 isn't active? That way this can be the first timeline to actually make it to the election.

a third party would be better because Warner is already the nominee.

I'd gladly rejoin as Mike Huckabee and run third-party BUT seeing as tmthforu94 wanted to beat me above all (I was playing as Mike, after all ), and it was pretty nasty, I'm not sure I wish to redo all of that.

Go for it. Looking at how this is going, that'll probably still put Warner in third place. As long as he doesn't win (he shouldn't) I'm fine, as I'll still have an advantage since I'll have more party support. Don't expect me to be nice, though, and I'll still attack you in character for running. You could run as Bloomberg, who'd probably do well.

Then, I'm not running. I said I don't want to repeat what has happened in the past, and I won't. Win/lose on your own.
