thehill.com ^ | July 10, 2016

A Donald Trump campaign stop in Indiana scheduled for Tuesday is raising speculation that the presumptive Republican nominee will announce Gov. Mike Pence as his running mate.

The Washington Times reported Sunday evening that Pence has a “95 percent probability” of being Trump's choice, according to sources close to the campaign and to the governor.

If he doesn’t pick Newt, he’s dumber than I thought. Pence doesn’t get him anything. Newt is the smartest guy in every room he’s in.

VP doesn't have much influence over policy, etc.

Newt would be powerful as Senior ADvisor. Trump is a CEO - he likes to delegate - as Senior Advisor, Newt would be - ipso facto - president. and that would give Pence, or whomever - 8 years to get ready to step in as President.

I'm good with that.

The Donald is NOT that STUPID! Pence is no "junkyard dog", which is what a VEEP has to be; neither does he add one damned thing to the ticket!

All of these idiotic name dropping articles are beyond moronic.

No, they pushed Bush, because of his “experience”. They could have just as easily have “pushed” anyone else. ;^)

At this point Cruz is toxic. Why not tweet Donald and tell him he's making a huge mistake in not naming a two-faced, lying, back-stabbing Cruz as his running mate. I'm sure he will change his mind and have a few million bumper stickers:

Trump / Lyin' Ted - 2016

.

Oh wait, that will be Hillary's anti-Trump campaign fodder. You can hear her radio and tv ads:

"Trump names Lyin' Ted as his running mate."

Pence is a safe pick. He’s 57 and looks young. He rings all the bells for conservatives and GOPee’s. Need to unite the party stuff. Helps stop shenanigans at the convention.

Heard today that Pence is under a pending deadline in the next few days (hours) to file for Governor, so we should know soon by what happens with that filing.

I don’t see Pence and TRUMP sharing the same internal motor, and he’s so low key that I can’t even remember what state he governs. lol. Is it Indiana?

This is Rope-A-Dope affair, surely. A timely flight to Indiana, before the next couple of days after which Pence has to file if he wants to run for gov.

I think you’re supporting my position: Re:

JFK loathed LBJ; so did the entire Kennedy family and most of his entourage.”

Yet JFK picked LBJ to win Texas -against the strong wishes of RFK for example.

I was excited by the possible General vp pick for Trump too, but then I remembered Ross Perot had a military guy as VP during his campaign, and he did terrible against the Democrat vp in debates. Like, really bad. He was military and not use to being bombarded with political trick questions and it was awful.

True but Stockdale was particularly clueless. You have a point though. Public speaking is something you have or you don’t and most don’t.

we don’t owe Cruz nuthin

And Trump wins Texas easy even if Cruz denounces him

You tried..Cruz didn’t lose cause you didn’t try I’ll give you that

But you ended defiant and still loving Cruz but plenty of us who once loved Cruz got very soured on him

My tipping point

Chicago when he blamed Trump

It was downhill from there.

Cruz is very disappointing..

Trump ain’t perfect but he fights and he knows what time it is

Lol....funny....I’m thinking Dagwood and Blondie.....but nopardons is like an instant recall machine on late 19th century thru 20th century western civ history especially Eastern Europe and USA

It’s scary

That she’s warm and fuzzy to her adversaries like you is just your good luck

I’ve always said this even when I disagree with her or more accurately ....she corrects me...correctly more often than not I confess....love her or hate her

No pardons is not stupid

I’ve said this publicly to her detractors for 16 years now

I know her so I’m partial but I challenge anyone to tell me I’m lying
