Didn't Nevada have a libertarian streak? In that case, Paul. He might even win it

Write in: Brian Sandoval.

But I think Chris Christie could be competitive in Nevada, at least more than the other guys listed.

Shouldn't this thread really be titled "Best potential GOP candidate for Sheldon Adelson"?

Ya Hispanics will love Rand the one who ran away from a DREAMer and hangs out with Steve King.

Pretty much in non-Southern states or other candidates' home states, Christie is the best choice, IMO.

Without a Mormon candidate, Paul should win Nevada. If Romney runs, he will probably win Nevada solely on the basis of that.

But as you know from reading this forum, Paul is an evil racist who would immediately repeal the CRA and eat a baby, all because he DARES to challenge the mighty Hillary.

I don't think Paul will do well enough with Hispanics to win the state.

Paul is the best Republican for Nevada, but against Hillary, he can't win it (though he might make the result closer than other Republicans could).

Paul might win Nevada and Colorado, but he loses Florida, Wisconsin, Michigan, Ohio, Pennsylvania and Virginia.

Bush but he won't run. Paul has no chance in the general but would do well in the Nevada primary.

I don't think Paul could win both Nevada and Colorodo if he has lost every swing state in the Midwest (I'm assuming Iowa went Democratic if Ohio did) and two Southern states. Colorado might be a very narrow Paul victory even if he loses the other states that you listed, but Paul has to make it above 270 electoral votes before we can seriously entertain the idea of him winning Nevada, which is farther to the left than the Centennial state.
