WIth no one qualifying as President or VP, Nanacy Pelosi, or whoever is Speaker of the House on January 20, 2008. Of course, with THAT at stake, you'd get the entire GOP supporting at least a Moderate Democrat for Speaker, and under the Constitution, the Speaker does not even need to be a member of the House - Sam Nunn or John Breaux anybody?
"...I have several republican friends who are not voting for McCain. They will either vote for Obama or just not vote they say."
I doubt a Republican turned off by McCain based on his liberalism would vote for the extremely liberal Obama. Obama will drive far more Democrats to vote for McCain than McCain ever could drive Republicans to vote for Obama.
Agreed, except Obama isn't a liberal. Hubert Humphrey was a liberal. Joe Lieberman is a liberal. Obama is a Marxist. I wish everyone would read up on Cone's Marxist/anti-white "Black Liberation Theology" as taught by the TUCC under Wright and his successor.
It's hard not to notice: In each of the past three Republican primaries, roughly a quarter of the vote went to someone other than John McCain.
Ron Paul and Mike Huckabee got a combined 27 percent of the vote in Pennsylvania last month, long after the GOP nomination had been settled in McCain's favor. On Tuesday, Paul, Huckabee and Mitt Romney received a combined 23 percent in Indiana. Alan Keyes, Huckabee, Paul and "no preference" took 26 percent in North Carolina.
I do know some Democrats that won't vote for Obama, but they are just sitting out this election.
By the same token, I have several republican friends who are not voting for McCain. They will either vote for Obama or just not vote they say.
If nobody votes for nobody, who wins?

Excuse the double. I refuse to vote for propeller.

Some still dissing McCain at polls
