So disappointed liberals and independents would rather see one of the current republican front runners than Obama?
You really believe that?
I seriously question if you understand the classic independent.
Many people are leaving both the democratic and republican party to declare themselves independent, but their position of either right, left, or moderate remains.
Obama is much more moderate than any of the republican front runners, the right wing independents voted for McCain, and the liberal independents will vote for a republican right winger?
I don't believe you are doing the math on this one...

Quote from NeoRio1:
A third party candidate running against Obama wasn't my idea. It was Olbermann's. My idea was that disappointed liberals and independents will simply not vote.
A large amount of Obama's base is not the same and will not vote for a conservative third party candidate. They will simply not vote because of their disappointment with Obama which gives his main opponent a much greater chance of winning. That means that even though there may be a third party conservative candidate with no other third party liberal candidates, Obama will still have trouble getting reelected. Get it yet?
Why don't you ask Olbermann which candidate will run against Obama. He's the one advocating the idea. http://tpmtv.talkingpointsmemo.com/tag/2012?id=3350081
Also, both parties are in shambles. Look at party approval ratings. Republicans are at 44.2 and Democrats are at 43.4. http://realclearpolitics.com/
Lastly are you trying to claim that I lack democratic knowledge because I said that a president will lose an election based on a portion of his base simply not voting? Are you serious?
