Veep nominations.. who do ya think will be the Veep noms?

[ghostsinthemachine]

Assuming that Hillary and T are the nominees.

I am thinking Hillary will pick Julian Castro. Or perhaps Joaquin Castro (twin brothers). Rising stars, big state. http://www.mcclatchydc.com/news/politics-government/article24774469.html

As for that other guy, I have no idea.

1. Agreed on (likely Julian) Castro. For Drumpf...

[ghostsinthemachine]

2. I really don't think he is that stupid

I thought that way but she is an idiot and even Trumpf knows that .

[phylny]

12. I agree.

Many Republicans I know didn't vote for McCain because the "thought of Palin being 'one heartbeat' away from the presidency" scared them.

[Runningdawg]

3. I agree with one of the Castros

For Trump? it needs to be someone who he can control. Not in office, in the election. I still believe Trump has NO intention of becoming the POTUS, that would be entirely TOO much work for him. His VP will be the patsy he needs to loose and save face. Oh poor pitifull me, I could have won the election if it wasn't for (fill in the blank). Palin is too obvious, Christy or Cruz seems about right. Even their own party hates them.

4. I kind of agree....

Once he figures out he is going to have to fund his own campaign, he will go all in for losing. He is not going to put a billion dollars out there on what he knows is a losing cause. Hillary will have a lot of PAC money and Trump won't.

5. "I still believe Trump has NO intention of becoming the POTUS"

Trump's ego is HUGE. He wants to be #1.

[Maeve]

10. Even if he were to win, he'll always be #2

A huge, steaming pile of #2

6. In both cases, someone adept at following orders.

7. All guesswork and conjecture on my part at this point

All guesswork and conjecture on my part at this point, but should Clinton win the primary, it would be hard to argue against Elizabeth Warren as part of a winning strategy... one that could conceivable repair the minor rifts currently percolating within the Democratic party, as it would certainly broaden the base for the general election

That said, Warren is a strategic piece of the Senate for the Democrats and I'd hate to see her sear lost to the GOP. On the other hand, it would be fun to watch the idiots who believe Clinton's political youth is directly relevant to rhetorically denying her the White House rationalize Warren's own evolution.

I can't even imagine who Sanders would pick... though I'd be surprised if it didn't surprise me.

8. Please not EW.....

We need her fighting the fight in the Senate, not doing not shit as Veep. I love her and would hate to see her minimized in the Veep position.

9. It is fun to call Trump stupid, but he is not. He will nominate someone who will help with Congress.

It is possible he will give Ryan a second chance, as Ryan is the Establishment pick.

[StevieM]

11. For Hillary I like Represenative Xavier Becerra of California. He is the chairman of

the Democratic Caucus and the #4 Democrat in the House, after Nancy Pelosi, Steny Hoyer and James Clyburn.

I think Trump will probably pick Governor Rick Scott of Florida.

[greendog]

13. Trump will pick Cruz. Clinton will pick John Kasich or Nikki Haley.

or some other "moderate" Republican.

[Erose999]

14. Drumpf will hold a celebrity apprentice to decide who his Veep will be. My guess is whichever star

of 90210, Melrose Place, or Saved by the Bell was most recently released from jail or rehab.

[La Lioness Priyanka]

15. julian not joaquim, is my best bet too.

[ScreamingMeemie]

16. Depends on the eventual nominees.

Still too early too tell.

[craigmatic]

17. Trump will probably pick jeb

[ghostsinthemachine]

18. Will he keep the exclamation point?!

Will it be Trump! and Jeb! or Trump and Jeb!? Or Trump and Jeb..?

[craigmatic]

19. He's going to need somebody to raise money for him and who can help govern.
