If George W. Bush and John McCain were not involved in the 2000 Republican nomination processes, who would win? I just looked up the candidates on Wiki and I find it to be an interesting field ... Dan Quayle, Pat Buchanan, Alan Keyes, etc. Whether or not any of these people had a snowball's chance in hell at winning the nomination, however, is up for grabs.
Who would win the 2000 Republican nomination, sans McCain and Bush? What would this mean for US politics?
