We are probably only one winter's storm away from Gov. Charlie Baker being mentioned as a possible pick as a Republican vice presidential running mate. And that storm threatens to come this weekend.
Not that there's anything wrong with a mention, even if Baker, the most popular governor in the nation, is not interested.
Nevertheless, his name will come up, and he would be an asset to several of the GOP candidates running for president.

No. These guys know what they are doing. Anyone taking Baker as VP would lose to the demonrats. This is just another attempt to put a torpedo into the side of the USS Anti-Establishment.
These folks are having kittens. Trump, Cruz, Carson, even Rubio and Paul on one side...Bernie on the other....it's killing them.
Baker's name out there? NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO AND NO CHANCE IN HELL.

I’ve seen this clown swing a golf club,
Does such about as well as he throws a baseball,
Worse that an 8 year old little girl.
Or about as manly as Pee Wee Herman.

I currently support Trump and realize this author is just trying to beat a deadline, but if Trump ever picked someone with the social agenda of Baker, I would abandon Trump in a minute. Some of the most dangerous folks are the republicans that insist that if we just gave up on abortion and the homosexual agenda, then Republicans would dominate elections. There would also no longer be any party even making a pretense to care about the word of God.

Nah, I’ll pass...
Another “moderate” Republican who can’t help win Massachussetts, but he can help elsewhere...? Are Baker and the author related?

Baker & Trump don’t get along, at all. No danger of him becoming VP. Baker is a classic liberal northeast republican.
