re: #333 Dark_Falcon

Why terrifying? Being “everyone’s second choice” has been a presidential nomination tactic for a long time. Abraham Lincoln used it successfully and its always been a tactic used more by Republicans than by Democrats. Of course until the 1960’s this tactic wasn’t as viable for Democratic presidential hopefuls because of how regionally divided the Democrats were back then.

Terrifying because I realize that Walker has a reasonable shot at the nomination. Of course, in 2012, I was convinced that Rick Perry was going to walk away with it…
