Cruz/Lepage might be a good choice but not the best to win, and losing means Shrillary. I helped reelect LePage by sending him several small donations, and I am not a Mainer. He won by a 48% plurality in a three way race. I would be very surprised if a Cruz/Lepage ticket could drag Maine into the GOP column. I love Ted Cruz but I don’t think he could carry a New England state. Walker might carry NH and Maine’s 2nd congressional district but I don’t believe he would need either to win.
I wouldn’t put LePage on the ticket to necessarily carry Maine, but because he is arguably the ballsiest and most no bull$hit Governor in the country. You need a pit bull VP and he fits the bill to a “T.”
