coming from a guy that thinks Sunnunu is a disrupter. Dude is losing to OMB in his own state but yes let’s take your word for it.

Justin Amash or Dave Smith

Manchin would not need that large of a percentage of voters to "shake up" the race.

Some of y’all are obsessed with 3rd party. IT IS NOT HAPPENING. The only single way it happens is if democrats jump ship along with the republicans and that’s not happening.
If it did, it would have to begin small with candidates winning house and senate seats for a decade or two before there will ever be enough people to NOT vote for republicans or democrats.

RFK Jr. does have some things in align in what I believe, but he would not be the bad for the country. I also want to see him dismantle the CIA. These people killed off his daddy, Robert F. Kennedy, and his uncle, John F. Kennedy. (that is why they cover it up. They don't want you to know the government would actually do this, but they will if you are not aligned with their narrative). If you are a democrat and continue to vote Biden, you are a whole lot of fools if you don't cast your vote for RFK Jr. versus Biden. The country could actually survive with his policies even though some policies are a little out of whack. His policies are less extreme as what we have with the Biden regime.
Would be fun to see the Alphabet departments squirm with lies. Government is not about you. It's about them and the lies they can make you belive. We are pretty much fricked because we allowed it.

Jesus. If your idea of a 3rd party candidate is a career politician then I think you are going to be very disappointed

This is like the 'free beer tomorrow' thing - tomorrow never comes. You have to vote differently, starting right now. And you have to tell people that you are voting differently. Before long, your friends that are all-Dem or all-Rep will begin to see that they are on the losing side, that they are the "3rd party".
Can't keep waiting around for someone else to do X or someone else to do Y.

Sununu like Romney represents a sliver of the Republican Party. Despicable.
Despicable? Why is being an educated, moderate republican despicable? I can tell you I would much rather have moderate Republicans like Hogan, Baker and Scott running New England states than their far-left counterparts. Maybe having an open tent policy would prove beneficial to expand the republican party and not just demonize them.

Zero.

Joe Manchin and Chris Sununu.
LOL. No shot.

There will not be a viable third party in this country for more than a single election cycle or two. And even those elections only involve some third party playing spoiler for one of the two major parties.
There’s a reason why there hasn’t been one. Our system effectively prevents third party participation.

Because apparently money for campaigning in grand fashion throughout the country is an indispensable part of the game in order to be legitimately viable - certain regions and states warranting more action than others of course. And no third party can come anywhere near the available resources of the two major parties.

Did not suggest them winning, but a serious 3rd party candidate could "shake" up the race. They don't have to have that large of a percentage to effect the outcome.
There is an organization ... no Labels ... set to have a candidate on EVERY state ballot.
Everybody always thinks of Ross Parot, but the 2000 election was also impacted by Ralph Nader. YOu also had Wallace in 1968.
IF it appears it is going to be Trump vs Biden, expect this to happen. They've got 70 million dollars. They have until March, 2024 to make a decision.
If they put Manchin on there, it could make a difference. If they put someone like former Maryland Gov Hogan, maybe. maybe not. Manchin with a GOP running mate could indeed "shake" up the race.

I don't keep up with him, what specifically is despicable about Sununu?
Posted on 5/20/23 at 6:53 pm to BuckyCheese
That is a great idea. As I recall, this was done at the highest level - DNC?

I listened to his interview with Dave Smith mowing tonight. I want him to stay in the dem ticket and beat Biden. I’ll vote for the L or R over him without question, but losing to a person that hates the CIA, FBI, and Deep State and Covid Vaccine enforcement would sting a hell of a lot less.

Any pseudo-viable 3rd ticket candidate will almost always sabotage the Republicans.
