An enthusiastic vote for Rocky/Romney.

Why are so many Republicans voting for RFK? I mean, sure, Rockefeller isn't a conservative, but he's to the right of RFK.

A poll was done on this board of all the people considered by Wallace for VP and John Wayne won.

But the fact he was considered in first place means he somewhat shared his views...

Well John Wayne was a conservative Republican if that's what you mean to say.

Well, no, that's not what I meant to say, but I just realized I'm on a forum where it is perfectly fine for conservative republicans (or even libertarians) to support Wallace.

Yeah, I didn't think that he'd have as many votes as he does.

Good Heavens, how did Wallace beat Rockefeller?

Apparently his stance on the war/support for states rights outweigh his blatant racism and segregationist stances in some voters' eyes.
