    George Wallace '68 was polling 24% before his new running mate Gen. Curtis LeMay said use of nuclear weapons in Vietnam should be explored.

        why didn't @MLauer ask @realDonaldTrump about nuclear weapon use? Trump previously said they were an option?

        @csdickey - AKA, "Bombs Away" Curtis Le May, probably the scariest general in US history.

        I believe Wallace took LAMAG (Louisiana, Arkansas, Mississippi, Alabama and Georgia) in the 1968 election.

        if I remember right, LeMay was a major reason we got sucked into Vietnam.

        Wallace made bad choice in LeMay, reminds me of Perot picking Stockton as his running mate in '92. Just shows VP can hurt.
