  1. 2018 Presidential Election

    This thread predicts IRL political events once again... McCarthy's ouster has definite shades in places of Sellner and Gelsey

  2. AHC: An Australian Prime Minister is assassinated

    2012 Australia Day protests, given then PM Gillard and future PM Abbott were at a location mobbed by angry protestors. The bodyguards had to pull Gillard and Abbott through the large, angered crowd and put them into the same car (during which Gillard even lost a shoe). So, in such a close...

  3. 2018 Presidential Election

    If I were the Seaborn campaign team and selection committee in 2022, I'd whittle it down to any of Bail, Newell, Payne, Robinson, Stray, Thornton or Tyler - all good candidates with their own strengths

  6. AHC: President Rudy Giuliani

    Not when he was picking a VP it wasn't, his problem was convincing the base he was sufficiently socially conservative enough. Giuliani worsened McCain's credentials amongst the social conservatives and added nothing else - wouldn't have helped the Republicans win New York, added nothing to...

  7. AHC: President Rudy Giuliani

    It's unlikely, simply for the fact that Giuliani adds nothing for McCain in an electoral sense. McCain already had a problem convincing the Evangelical right about his credentials, hence a big factor in Palin's selection, but also for the fact that he tried choosing Lieberman and this went down...

  8. 2018 Presidential Election

    At least Benn avoided Mandyville

  9. The Campaign Trail Game Has Returned.

    Honestly going to put my foot through my fucking screen if I lose another 1916 campaign to Wilson - literally every path (progressive, moderate, conservative, anti-war, pro-war) fails

  10. The Campaign Trail Game Has Returned.

    https://www.americanhistoryusa.com/campaign-trail/game/1088801 Romney/Rubio in an absolute squeaker - Obama won the popular vote by just over 930,000 votes but Romney was delivered over the line by a margin of just over 1,000 in Nevada; 9,000 in Virginia and 22,000 in Ohio. Undoubtedly...

  12. The Campaign Trail Game Has Returned.

    Better Electoral College win for W. than 2000 OTL, with a 294-244 win over Gore, with Powell on the ticket. However, Dubya also loses the popular vote by over a million votes, significantly more than OTL 2000... Notably Gore only won Pennsylvania by 20,000 and Bush only won Tennessee by 9,000...

  13. The Campaign Trail Game Has Returned.

    Solid win as Kennedy in 1960, bigger than OTL - https://www.americanhistoryusa.com/campaign-trail/game/1035010 Notable results include Nixon winning Alaska by only 4 votes and Kennedy beating back a strong Byrd challenge in the South

  14. Blair assassinated in 1999.

    John Prescott assumes command at the head of an emergency, temporary government, possibly triggering a succession crisis with Gordon Brown

  15. List of US Presidents, 1960 to 2020

    My understand is he'd be eligible the same way people like Ted Cruz or George Romney were eligible to run, born on foreign soil but the child of US citizens.

  16. List of US Presidents, 1960 to 2020

    1932: Al Smith / Cordell Hull (Democratic) 1936: Al Smith / Cordell Hull (Democratic) [1] 1940: Styles Bridges / Dewey Jackson Short (Republican) [2] [1] A fairly close race due to the well-oiled campaigning machine their opponent Alf Landon set up and due to Smith's Catholicism driving down...

  18. The Campaign Trail Game Has Returned.

    No, avoid.

  19. 2018 Presidential Election

    Was it ever established on the show or in the thread why Straub stepped down as Chief Justice after just over 5 years? Seems quite brief for a Chief who is still alive over 25 years later

  20. 2018 Presidential Election

    Sam's best option now is to avoid any West Wing resignations or firings, put the Bartlet nomination behind him and press on, show contrition, anything else would just make the mess worse for him.
