80. Go Garcia! Take the Third Way down!

Wed Feb 25, 2015, 10:21 PM

Feb 2015

Now if we can just get a Third Way CHALLENGER with serious chances into the Primary...

One thing to note is Garcua came out if nowhere and didn't spend a lot of money, and people still voted AGAINST Third Way Rahm!

Hell, I'll run for President just to give people a freaking alternative. How much does it cost to file stuff and where do I do it?
*hopes this gives people more qualified than I the idea to stampede, if for no other reason to prevent someone not as important as them from accidentally becoming President by soaking up the JUST SAY NO TO THIRD WAY HILLARY vote*
