1968: Romneymania!
or
The Three Georges

This was a fun little game. I took out Nixon on the Republican side and played as Romney. I negotiated to win the endorsement of the Teamsters and Eisenhower, which, combined with my decisive victory in the New Hampshire primary, allowed me to snowball to the GOP nomination, where I picked George Bush as my running mate. On the Democratic side, I turned off Humphrey and enabled McGovern and Connally, letting the chaos unfold. Connally dropped out around the Florida primary, but the convention was deadlocked until McCarthy threw his support to McGovern, whose running mate was Fred Harris.

Compared to the primary season, the general election was pretty anticlimactic; I had double-digit leads all the way to November (though I threw in some ads and a Crusader - Gerry Ford - for a little boost just to be sure). Debates were mixed, one each for Wallace and myself. McGovern got a boost from the "Halloween Peace", but it wasn't enough to save him. I probably could have gone for RI, AK, ME, and MA if I wanted, but I was busy focusing on other states. Either way, landslide:

Gov. George Romney (R-MI)/Rep. George Bush (R-TX): 466 EVs, 38,378,134 PVs (50.6%)
Gov. George Wallace (AI-AL)/Mr. Curtis LeMay (AI-CA): 39 EVs, 12,218,018 PVs (16.1%)
Sen. George McGovern (D-SD)/Sen. Fred Harris (D-OK): 32 EVs, 25,315,006 PVs (33.3%)

I decided to try this game out. I have been coasting as Clinton, everything was semi-normal... then this just happened:

Walker just dropped out of the race... with the lead. All he had to do to clinch the nomination was win NE, which he has a 20 point lead in the polls over Rubio... and he dropped out.

Rubio doesn't have enough delegates in second place to reach the majority with the remaining states so I don't know what the sim is going to do but this was so weird.

D'oh, Walker missed!
