He said he might pick NE liberal RINO, Scott Brown.

The ideal strategy with VP picks is not to find a soulmate or fellow traveler. Quite the opposite, actually. The right man (or woman, I guess) can find you votes that may or may not have been there all along.


I agree. But Rubio does not fit Trump’s anti beltway agenda on so many issues. That will surely be noticed.

It wouldn’t surprise me if Trump picked a guy like Jim Webb. He checks a lot of boxes. Virginia, USMC, etc. But you are right that if Trump thinks he needs help in Florida then Rubio is the guy.

Actually, aside from the fact that every Hispanic person I know hates Trump's guts, I think Trump does does play pretty well in Florida, home to a lot of transplanted NYers.

However, even where Trump beats Rubio in the South, Rubio does outperform his numbers versus northern States. Rubio could be helpful in the Carolinas and Georgia, and he may be worth a few Hispanic votes in AZ and New Mexico.

The more I think about it, the more I think that if I were Donald Trump I would be giving Marco a lot of thought.

Only if he wants to ally himself with limp-wristed liars, sure.

She's got this addiction to hitching herself to non-Conservatives.

Rush had it right but he missed one thing. She's definitely doing this because the GOP has done nothing but hammer her so she wants to be part of the Trump movement. Which really means she's doing this for herself because you can't push conservative values and back a man who just a few short years ago was a registered Democrat and was pro choice, pro amnesty, pro progressive tax, pro Canadian health care.

I guess everyone has their price.

This is not meant to be a knock on Donald Trump, but I do hope you realize that he lies all the time.

“Trump didn’t ‘dodge’ a damn thing.”

No he didn’t.

First off, it is way pre-mature for any candidate to name a VP.

Secondly, he pretty much answered no.

An honest headline would be: Trump Indicates Palin Won’t Be His VP Pick.

I think whoever Trump picks as his V.P. we are going to be very surprised and happy....

I predict that whomever he picks there will be voluminous threads decrying how he betrayed us.

I would not be shocked if he picked Carly but plenty of people here would be outraged.

This post I copied from hot Air has good points on why Cruz gets hit by Trump:

This post is just more Hot Air B$.

That’s unfortunate. You would have an insight as to her views on energy.

Almost always I will not buy a book by a currently running candidate. Even if I support them, I consider it to be “glow” stuff. And I fully supported Palin.
