"Should Obama resign, Biden becomes President.   See the Nixon/Ford succession."

Precisely.

So let's go one more step.

How did that work out for Mr. Ford in 1976?

As I said, internecine warfare.

How many Mudcatters think Ford is a good model for the present situation?

Look, sometimes (in fact most of the time) it's a lot better to "dance with the one that brung ya."

And stop complaining about it.

Especially since things are likely to improve in the summer.



But it's also still (this is a recording) not a wonderful idea to just assume that Sarah will not run, if she runs cannot get the Republican nomination, and if she gets it cannot be elected.

How many Mudcatters have lived through the 1980 or 2000 elections?    Quite a few, I'd bet.   That should give you more than a hint of Sarah's chances.
