Why doesn't a Republican nominee cross the line and run for the Dem nomination? What would be the impediments to this?
This would require 0 to spend money on the primary. Otherwise, 0 can save his war chest for the general. Also, he might have to debate with an R earlier than expected?

No, Romney is a D running for the R nomination.

The impediment is money. In this case it would be throwing it away. Hard to attract donations to your cause when that’s the plan.

Us too.

Irrelevant since he's not limited to telling the truth.

Yes, Romney should be primaried against Obamajad, but the rest would have a hard time mouthing all the freaking lies they would have to spew to pick up Obamajad’s freak voters on the commie side.
Unless you are a total narcissistic sociopath, telling bigger and whoppier lies than Obamajad is an impossibility.

The candidate would get no traction and Obama would not have to debate.

Maybe, but with many states with open primaries, and a possible Operation Chaos II, a R could win some states. Of course, the Dems would change the convention rules such that 0 would ultimately be the nominee, but it would be interesting to see. And for some candidates, it would be money better spent than running in the R camp.

Romney and Huntsman are the ones who should cross the line to the dem primary.

Why doesn't a Republican nominee cross the line and run for the Dem nomination? What would be the impediments to this? Here's the problem. Obama won't have to debate him, and he won't have to spend campaign cash to fight a primary challenge. It won't even matter if Obama loses all the state primaries. Come convention time, Obama will still be the nominee. He has already proven that one does not have to get the most primary votes to be selected as the nominee. Just ask Hillary Clinton about that one.

Why would a Republican, a conservative one at that, cross over to run as a Democrat? They would get no backing by the DNC, state, or local party. There is a movement to let people vote across party lines, which I find horrendous. Democrats try to infiltrate Republicans. We don’t try to infiltrate Democrats.

And Trump, plus money would not be an issue for him.
