Yes, definitely. With my economic conservatism combined with your social conservatism we'll be unstoppable!

Probably not, because a ticket with me and Oldiesfreak would lose the entire South. Tongue

of course! I don't know how well it'd go over with the GOP base considering our social views Tongue

Sure! Though the scene won't be pretty at the NRC, I'll probably need a moderate to get the ol' Perot, Dole and McCain voters to jump in our boat Smiley

I could see it done, though we'd probably have to flex our independent muscles to win after losing a lot of socons.

A fascist/libertarian ticket could form an invincible GOP coalition, stretching from the Rust Belt to the Sun Belt.

Not really. Since I would be a disaster as a candidate, it would be cruel and unusual punishment to do that to a nice young man. What I need to get my vote above 40%, is to have someone a bit more socially conservative (I have enough problems being gay and a pothead, etc., and more traditional folks need reassurance), and a bit more liberal economically (particularly since I don't have I pulled myself up by my bootstraps story line, so like Mittens, I'm vulnerable to silver spoon attacks). On the other hand, "Sanchez" has a nice ring to it. Smiley

Could be a decent balance. I don't see why not.

No, given that he holds no political office and is presumably too young to hold the office of Vice President.

Okay, maybe Mike Johnson is a competent parliamentarian.

Assuming he held enough prior stature, yes, I might, actually.

It would be nice for regional diversity, but you seem to be much more liberal than the Democrats of Appalachia. I'd seriously consider it if I had major problems with the Democratic base, but would probably pass.
