2. Guiliani is going to win FL now. He's a problem if he does.

3. What do you mean? Isn't it too late for anyone to claim they're a
candidate?

14. But not to be a part of the discussion, right? They can write them in,
or their person could run indie. But I thought both parties are closed. I remember Gore had to declare by early November. Are there different rules?

15. No, someone stands on the floor and enters a name into nomination
Then it's seconded. Then it's voted on.

(That's the short story)

19. Stands on the floor?
Good thing I'm in tune here, or not. Floor as in the House? Does this apply to both parties?

I didn't know this.

4. It wouldn't surprise me at this point
A draft Cheney or Condi Rice movement. Or Jeb Bush for the Aristocracy ticket.

In any event I'll have to shoot myself in the face.

25. No, Chuck Todd just WISHES there were more Repubs in the campaign.
He's unhappy with his party's choices.
