It would split the Republican vote in half.

Who's with me?

We should clandestinely start a draft --insert winger here--- movement.

Astroturf, you know? It'd only take a website and some promotion on the right-wing blogs and Freeperland.

1. OMG, I was JUST thinking that the other day
I really, really hope Tom Tancredo runs in the Republican primary and causes an UGLY knock-down drag-out brawl, which will split the party and alienate all the anti-immigration nationalist repukes from the eventual candidate.

4. Unfortunately, this has to be done very covertly. Calls must be made
to raise funds for covert action.

5. You do realize this person would pull away Dem votes, too.
It's only in the kum by ah blogosphere that people won't discuss the serious difficulties of immigration reform. To assume there aren't Dem voters who are anti-immigration is dangerous.

6. I honestly don't think people in the heartland give a shit
about immigration. What I think we need is for the Calvinists and other assorted fundy cultists to see that abortion is still at least nominally legal in at least part of the country and form their own theocratic party to do the rest of the job of sending women into despair and into the hands of butchers.

I'm surprised Roy Moore hasn't already done it, but I guess he'll have to lose his bid for Governor first.
