Third Party?

The big buzz in Presidential politics at the moment is the sentiment expressed by some on the social-conservative right that they will support a third-party candidate if Rudy Giuliani gains the GOP nomination.

I continue to stubbornly refuse to believe that Giuliani will win the nomination, so that speculation is moot to me. But it provides me an excuse to mention my own pet theory: If John McCain wins the nomination (as I continue to stubbornly predict), a "nativist" (anti-illegal-immigration) independent candidate will run.

Keep your eye on Lou Dobbs, is all I'm saying.
