OK, so you want to draft party loyalists for your campaign to run on a mixed ticket? Who in Washington would ever fall for this kind of thing? I'm sorry, but it's just not realistic on a national basis. Maybe you could get it started on a local grass-roots level first, but I don't see how this could ever work on a national level. There are far too many problems - would candidates allow themselves to be drafted for a third party run? Who would fund it? Can you get on all the ballots?

Nice idea but so was New Coke, and we all know how well that did.
