What if a conservative candidate wins the nomination, but feels they need a moderate VP to ‘balance’ the ticket after a rancorous primary, like Reagan/Bush?

Everyone on here seems so concerned about recent polls of independents, that might be a way to bring them on board. Just asking questions...

It would depend on what you meant by “moderate”. Pro abortion is never going to work. Amnesty will never be accepted either... not going to happen. After that... it would depend upon who it is.

I have to say... that Reagan's choice of Bush lead directly to clinton... because the VP has a likely chance on becoming president... and Bush was a liberal that did not keep his word and only got elected because of Reagan. Not a good precedent at all.
