Is it too late for Republicans to get somebody else on the ballot?

1. Yes. (nt)

[hedgehog]

2. One ballot, or 50 different ballots?

[moondust]

4. Any/all.

Take your pick.

[hedgehog]

8. I should have made myself clearer- I think that the 50 states

all have different regulations and deadlines for making ballot changes.

3. The Gallup Poll has Mitt tied with Obama. I still think Obama easily wins with the electorial votes

[librechik]

5. they blew their last chance to replace him at the convention. Should have gone for

the empty chair.

6. Sigh! Yes. Think about what you posted.

First, Romney stepping down would be unprecedented scandal.

Second, a wounded Romney is better than another candidate from a scandalously incompetent party.

Why do DUers post this stuff?

7. Think about what you posted.

You are so presumptuous as to assume you know how Republicans think and what they might try to do with a desperately wounded candidate late in the game. Frankly, your arrogance is in a class with Romney himself.

Why do you post this stuff? Just to be condescending or is there a deeper problem?

If there is still an Ignore list feature in this place, you may consider yourself on it.

9. Gawd, I hope so.

But I will miss Willard when the election is over. The comedy is priceless.

[Retrograde]

10. I'm not a constitutional scholar

(although I have read it and keep a copy bookmarked), but aren't we voting for electors pledged to a certain candidate or party, not the candidates themselves? Is there anything to prevent the Romney electors from getting together and saying, hey, no way is this guy presidential material -let's all vote for Jeb instead.

Changing the actual ballots? I doubt it: voting's already started in some states.

11. Memo to The GOP: Go for It

As bad as Romney is, he's much more reasonable than the buffoons he ran against in the primaries. His 47% gaffe would have been smal potatoes compared to the rot that would have been uttered by the other candidates.

12. they'd have to face the Paul delegates at that point

and after the RNC I think there may be a problem with those guys.
