The baseline criteria for becoming a major party presidential nominee is that you have to be the kind of person a major party would nominate for president. Lots of other people participate in debates, do well in occasional polls, and even might win some votes in primaries. But to be the nominee, you have to be like a nominee. And Pence certainly fits the bill — governor of a state is about the most common nominee out there, and his past congressional experience means he's known to DC players. In his congressional days, he made regular media appearances and (unlike, say, Sarah Palin) is prepared to talk about a range of policy issues and field questions from the national press.*************************
Cheap slur.

Since he is going to be the nominee, no need to waste a lot of money on primaries, campaigning, ads, etc.
When is his coronation?

But you don't need to be a celebrity to win a nomination, Taking a shot at Sarah Palin is NOT a good way to win any friends around here, bub.

I don't know him to dislike him. Or like him.
Mike Pence has avoided controversy
That is not an endorsement. Fighters fight. Leaders lead.

Certainly worthy of consideration in my mind. He’s been on my radar; good to see some more talk on the subject.

I’ve mentioned several times that my top tier choices are (in no particular order) Cruz, Palin, Santorum, Jindal, and Pence. Just yesterday I posted: “I think that Pence may emerge as the ultimate choice.” I still think that, but I would be happy with any of the five.

A little too thoughtful. It makes the BS meter jump.
