Title: SC-Gov 2010: Alternate History Post by: voice_of_resistance on June 13, 2019, 02:02:15 PM Would Sheheen have won if 2010 was not such a bad year? He got 47 percent of the vote in arguably the worst midterm for Dems especially in the South, arguably since 1994 and before that probably 1865 lol.
Title: Re: SC-Gov 2010: Alternate History Post by: Some of My Best Friends Are Gay on June 13, 2019, 02:18:55 PM Yeah, under a President McCain midterm he definitely would have won. there was no path for him in 2010 even though he kept it much closer than it should have been.
Title: Re: SC-Gov 2010: Alternate History Post by: President Johnson on June 13, 2019, 02:21:24 PM McCain would have been a one termer and 2014 a Democratic midterm. He would have most likely lost reelection then unless there would have been a Mike Beebe 2010 situation.
Title: Re: SC-Gov 2010: Alternate History Post by: voice_of_resistance on June 13, 2019, 02:35:39 PM What's the Mike Beebe situation? Also do you think if Obama was president he could have won at all, if 2010 was an even year or even D+1 as supposed to 2008 being D+10?

Also do you think if Obama was president he could have won at all, if 2010 was an even year or even D+1 as supposed to 2008 being D+10? He won reelection in 2010 with 64% of the vote and swept every county in Arkansas. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2010_Arkansas_gubernatorial_election |
