The article from MSN discusses the potential impact of Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s (RFK Jr.) nomination on both Republican and Democratic voters.

The article suggests that his candidacy could disrupt the usual political alignments, potentially drawing votes from both sides but also creating significant discomfort among party loyalists who might see him as too radical or not aligned with core party values.
