A couple of weeks back, there was summit of GOP establishment types who were plotting a Dr. Evil-style strategery for running a mainstream GOP hack (read: a Wall Street / MIC toadie) to the right of the presumptive Republican Party nominee. And yeah, we all chuckled about it for a bit, discussed the ballot access issues, and broke down “sore loser” laws on a state by state basis.
