earlier I had posted what a great job on this timeline you've done True Democrat............but its gone downhill badly. I do appreciate your efforts, but this timeline got away from you around '76. Just not in the slightest believeable past that
Would you mind telling me what's not believable?
Well I find the Dole assasination immediately on the heels ( within two weeks) of Bush's assasination a stretch -- but I'd be willing to let that pass on artistic license. What is really hard to swallow is to even consider that Bush had anywhere near the gravitas to run for President in '76, far much less, Crane or Anderson in '76 being as both were very limited at that time in the House of Reps, unlike in '80. I just feel its far more likely that a more established Republican like Nixon or Reagan would just stand by and watch only Anderson, Bush and Crane run in '76.
You certainly do write better than I ever could and the first part of the story was the most awesome I've seen on Alt History boards. I've been visiting at least 4 different AH forums for a while now. I was just dissappointed in the ultra fantasy turn thats all
