He just made a subtle implication.

Did we ever finish up that campaign financing bit? Bell is going to save up his money until the debates really get started, just run off of name recognition for now. (Think Colin Powell)

Anyone know if my application (Alicia Florrick D-NY) has been accepted? I thought it had but the character is not listed on the main page or in the congress/archive threads.

Are we actually doing Iowa next week? I thought the whole point of starting in December was so we had time for some debates, laying out of platforms, and Congressional bits before we jumped straight into primary fever?

Well if we are doing that, then we can move Iowa to 3 weeks from now, and put a debate in today.

When you update the roster, list Turing in the Independents/Non-Aligned section, as while he's running in the Democratic primaries and caucuses with Senate Democrats, he was elected as the SDP candidate.

I'm worried we will have 10 candidates at the convention. Hopefully the debates will weed people out, and players will act appropriately.

Root out last place in Iowa, and last place in NH..
Repeat until we have 4-5 candidates left.

I agree. Some characters can lose the first three primary states and still win the primary overall.

I think Nature should play its course, people either drop out or are forced to (scandal etc), and whoever is left goes to the convention.
