A Third Party? Sarah's right, and wrong.

Well since she brought it up, I will again talk about a third party, but this time be specific. In this election, if Romney gets the GOP (Tea Party) nomination, a third party would come from the far right. This would split the GOP and ensure that President Obama a second term. But let's say that a true Tea Party member like Perry gets the nomination. This would leave a vacuum down the middle. Now let's say that the New York mayor and Jon Huntsman entered as the third party. They have the money to run in all states, and would take votes from moderate GOP people, but would also take votes from conservative Democrats. Now none of the three would get a majority of the votes or the electorial college votes, and the House would elect the President. Not one person would vote for someone outside their party. So now a Tea Party would hand the Presidency to its nominee, in this case Perry. So, Palin, once again you might be somewhat right, while being completely wrong about  what could very easily happen.
