I'm of the uninformed opinion that any national election will probably have a Condorcet winner. IF that's true, then we could literally pick any Condorcet method, and just go with that. Condorcet IRV seems a reasonable choice, in that it's relatively easy to explain to people (compare to beatpath, for example). I think all the discussion about the merits of different methods is just so much bikeshedding. It might matter, but it's far more important to pick _something_ than to stick with plurality! In that spirit, I am totally in support of Maine's choice to go with IRV, even with its warts.
