[defe07]

Who would win if the race was between Ron Paul and Hillary Clinton in 2008?

Clinton landslide.

I would give Oklahoma and Nebraska to Clinton while adding Mississippi for Paul.

Otherwise that looks right, Clinton would probably win by areound 15-20% nationally

With more name recognition, Ron Paul has a shot to win this.  The dislikes are incredibly high on Hillary so no way he gets less than 45%.  He also is a candidate that would fire up his base and certainly bring over people from the other side of the aisle.  Paul selects Huckabee as his running mate touting his flat tax proposal, and Hillary picks Richardson.  Final result:

No way Paul takes CA.

I think he wins a lot of the ultra-liberal vote in areas like San Francisco, taking something like 30% in San Francisco.  Hillary's high disapprovals allow him to seek a huge upset here.

No way. Some latte liberals might vote for Paul but only 5% of them. CA stays Democratic by just as much as 2004.

I think CA swings Republican by about 2 or 3%, but not enough for Paul to take it.

There would be a third-party splinter. No way the coporatists, neocons and conservatives in the party would allow it to just be Paul.
