A Kaine-Pence veep debate may be boring, but give me boring.

[day10]

Pretty conservative, runs Indiana as one of the few states with a budget surplus.

What I didn’t like was that he folded like a cheap suit when Indiana passed a religious freedom law and the lunatics went crazy. That bothers me.

[Huck]

He’s just the right kind of bland. It’s a very sensible pick. Trump has enough charisma already.

[SoFloFreeper]

Will Pence grow a spine? Or will he let Angie’s List dictate to him?

[exit82]

All excellent points about Pence.

If Trump is OK with him, so am I.

[Chauncey Gardiner]

Hillary will counter with the gay Latino Castro.

[God luvs America]

i like Pence a lot....after the 2012 i had hoped Pence would be at the top of the ticket...

[God luvs America]

Bush?

[Timpanagos1]

I think you are right.

Hillary will have Castro as her VP.

[Salvey]

Pence is rather bland and milquetoast

So was Calvin Coolidge...and look how he turned out.

[Scutter]

First big decision from Trump, and he disappoints. Doesn’t bode well.

Pence is rather bland and milquetoast

Which is perfect to balance out the ticket. You can't have two prima donnas on the ticket.

[Sacajaweau]

The more I hear the media push Pence, the more I think it will be Newt.

In a race with Bubba the perv and his lying wife....what's her name..., Newt's baggage is sandwich baggie.

“Don’t believe anything until I hear it from Trump’s own lips. The media are just playing games.”

Very likely.

[riverdawg]

Whom would you prefer Trump pick?

[Col Frank Slade]

I don’t think Fidel is interested.

[Red Steel]

I think that Pence may have some appeal to OH, MI, PA, and WI, maybe even IL.

And probably Missouri.

[Phillyred]

Pence was last seen on his private jet:

If Trump is OK with him, so am I.

I love how all the experts on FR are saying that Trump has made a mistake with Pence. What do they know? They could not hold a candle to Trump and have no clue how to win!

So, Trump was supposed to pick John Kasich, the RINO and closet Democrat? This would have hurt him in the general - not help him. Kasich opposes everything Trump stands for.
