I don't understand his math here. Presuming he's a smart guy he should see that their chances are weak. What's the benefit to him? -- nm - Max Jul 14, 11:31 12
- Are they weak? -- nm - TorBaron Jul 14, 11:38 1

- He was going to lose the governorship anyway, so may as go for the big. -- nm - ÜMLaut Jul 14, 11:36 1
  - ah, then that does make sense, because he can say he didn't lose reelection and Trump was the reason their ticket lost last time.. -- nm - Max Jul 14, 11:38
- A national profile which is probably better than he's likely to ever really have. -- nm - Will Hunting Jul 14, 11:33 7
  - right, it got Palin, what? 8 years of publicity and jobs she never would have got. - decline Jul 14, 11:37
  - But why not get reelected and then just try next time on his own? If he loses now he's got no record for the next 3+ years. -- nm - Max Jul 14, 11:35 3
    - in no way would he have kep the Governership. -- nm - Remlik Jul 14, 12:01 1
      - yeah, I didn't know much about him, I was just assuming he had incumbent clout. -- nm - Max Jul 14, 12:08
    - he's apparently pretty unpopular in Indiana, after the gay pizza law -- nm - gerald Jul 14, 11:36
  - Tell-all book and talking head. Both pay better than civil service -- nm - TWuG Jul 14, 11:35
  - "Yep, I'm the guy who agreed to run with THAT guy" -- nm - gerald Jul 14, 11:35
now watch Trump eff him over at the last second -- nm - gerald Jul 14, 11:29

- what are the chances a Democrat can take his place? -- nm - decline Jul 14, 11:29 3
  - depends on the GOP'er they get to replace him. The top Dem that keeps running for Gov is a clown. -- nm - Remlik Jul 14, 11:35
  - In Indiana? Not very good. -- nm - Volnelk Jul 14, 11:34 1
    - not true it just depends on the Dem. Evan Bay was our last Dem Gov -- nm - Remlik Jul 14, 11:35
