Ferraro was a poor and bizarre choice (Husband had financial issues) and Palin a mixed blessing but neither was the reason their man lost. Mondale was gonna lose badly, period, his VP was of no consequence after Reagan tore his throat out in their debate. There is some evidence Palin helped a bit with the woman’s vote and the base loved her. McCain wasn’t gonna win after the financial collapse, and his response to it, a different running mate would have changed nothing, the man at the top of the ticket was the problem, he was a fool.

I think there’s an excellent chance the GOP nominee, who will be a man and likely running against Hillary, will want a woman on his ticket. Because, duh. I mean really, duh. Dismissing the notion because the Ferraro and Palin weren’t elected is absurd.

Fiorina and Gov. Susana Martinez and are the likeliest female choices.

You’re assuming that Hillary Clinton won’t pass away, become too ill, be indicted or lose the nomination in some other fashion. I assume no such thing. Her poll numbers go down every time I see them.
