Now, do a History search on Duncan Hinter threads from 2007/2008 and see the exact same arguments presented.
Let Pence run for Senate against Bayh and look ahead to 2016 or 2020 — he’s young enough. He might also be reasonable VP material in 2012, but not likely — someone like Palin would probably want someone “older” and “more experienced” (ala Cheney for GWB), though she does like to buck “conventional wisdom”. Romney would potentially like Pence as a sop to conservatives, but would Pence go along?
Mike Pence can beat Obama.
Romney can’t.
