TR 08

What next, if President Theodore Roosevelt had not made the pledge on not running.

I cannot imagine him losing in 08.

So what happens in 1912?

I am guessing Republicans still have some difficulties and lose ground in the mid terms.

I presume Republicans do not split.

Does Wilson still run and win?

If not who?

Could TR conceivably seek nomination for what would in effect be a 4th tem?

Any impact on US attitudes to WW1?
 
I suppose a fourth term would be too much even for TR. Alas no war . . .

Democrats really need a win, is the country by then Republicanned out?

Progressives don't come into it, as they are probably the strong arm of the Republicans

Socialists? No this isn't the ASB section, so No

Maybe Taft, Maybe Root, La Folette?
