      - If that's true, then why must KH's VP pick be a white CIS male moderate? -- nm* - con_carne Jul 26, 07:09 3

        I'm confused by your response. I'm the one here who has been saying it doesn't have to be. -- nm - Strongbad Jul 26, 07:25 1
        
        The q was not directed at you, but the fact that this does seem to be the direction of things. -- nm - con_carne Jul 26, 07:30
      - McCain picking Sarah Palin (aside from the whole mortgage meltdown) was the biggest VP own goal since Dan Quayle. judgment matters to voters -- nm - hollywood big shot Jul 26, 06:59
    - Nikki Haley would have been the obvious strategic balance -- nm - hollywood big shot Jul 26, 06:43 16
      - Rubio would also have been a better pick than JD. Probably the #2 pick behind Haley that he could have made. -- nm - Jovian Jul 26, 07:01 4
        
        Meh. ST (david?) told me years ago that Rubio had no political future. -- nm - Strongbad Jul 26, 07:05 3
        
        He...didn't. Remember how he wasn't running again in hopes of becoming a national candidate? Pepperidge Farms remembers... -- nm - David Jul 26, 08:03 1
        
        Let's revisit this again later. -- nm - Strongbad Jul 26, 10:15
        
        he was supposed to be the fresh young nominee in 2012. and only stayed in the senate after that didn't pan out (or in 2016) by reneging on his promise -- (link) - hollywood big shot Jul 26, 07:11

        Being VP to a 78 year old president has its compensations -- nm - Roger More Jul 26, 07:05
        
        of course she would have said yes. -- nm - Jovian Jul 26, 07:00
        
        in a heartbeat. she stood up on the convention floor to totally debase herself for him after all the semi-tough talk of the primaries -- nm - hollywood big shot Jul 26, 06:47 4
        
        Candidates like her (and DeSantis) regularly bend the knee like this for the good of the party and because it's expected. Not because they want to. -- nm - Strongbad Jul 26, 06:50 3
        
        Which pretty much is why she would've said yes. -- nm - Cuzzin Todd Jul 26, 06:56 1
        
        Disagree. That's why she said Yes in 2016. She wouldn't do it again. -- nm - Strongbad Jul 26, 07:24
