PPP has put together a scenario of what would happen if it came down to Obama vs. Romney and a Third Party run.
I guess this is PPP's subliminal attempt to 'plant a seed' in the heads of Republican voters of what would happen if Romney is nominated when IN REALITY, any Republican other than Romney, would lose by even a greater margin. I can hear the anyone but Romney folks now, "I bet if they had done Rick Perry duh...he would have won.

Not too sure about those lower polling 3rd party candidates... BUT either way... sure shows that a 3rd party run would only guarantee Obama's re-election.
ReplyDeleteI am also very doubtful of Palin getting 21% of the vote. She would be lucky to pull in 5-8% She polls very poorly due to the image/reputation problems that haunt her.
