And did Buchanan win the nomination?
Where were his numbers nationally?
To save you the trouble, he had far better numbers than Paul nationally and STILL didn't win the nomination.
Good point. The nomination is the key. Many of RP's supporters are Dems who cannot vote in the primary. That will be the linchpin of this effort.
By the way, I submit that Buchanan is the second reason (behind Ross Perot) that HW lost the general. You're not supposed to challenge an incumbent in a primary for prez. Doing so caused HW to spend campaign money to beat him, and also hurt him by challenging him in debates, weakening him in the eyes of conservs.
