McCain had to pick someone who would shake up his campaign because he was wafting in the wind. He desperately needed a shot of energy.

Trump, on the other hand, is the locomotive. He doesn't need to pick anyone to boost him. He just needs to pick someone who confirms his principles.

Could have been. I just recall it was not Trump even though he had some nice things to say about Trump.

There’s the issue that the lobby of Trump Tower must remain open to public, so they can’t close it off for security at a campaign event. It was the legal agreement with the city when Trump was allowed to build more height on the tower, according to what someone posted here awhile back.

She wasn’t thoroughly vetted either from what I recall. That isn’t a mistake Trump is likely to repeat.

Reagan named his VP pick about the same time before the convention in “76”, and it cost him the delegates of Mississippi who then switched to Ford to give him the nomination. Had Reagan waited he would have defeated Ford at the convention in the way Cruz was trying to do.

That means the family needs to come in late tonight to the venue
Just announced that Pence’s right hand man was on a plane with Major Garrett to NY this afternoon.
Someone check Garrets tweets

I know!!! I am so excited...I don’t know who it’s going to be, I thought Palin; then I thought Perry; then I thought Pence; I really don’t know...

The funniest part of this is watching the media, they are tied up in knots trying to be the ‘first’ one with the ‘news’ and there are NO LEAKS...now that is a first in politics....ROFL....

#veepstakes mania watch 2 -- Marc Lotter, deputy campaign manager for @GovPenceIN on my flight from Indy to NYC. I'm sure just coincidence

Trump could have all the rumored selections come to NYC in preparation for the announcement. They probably had been told whether they were selected or not, but not who it was. However, the press would go crazy with a rumor like this for Christie, Newt, Sessions, etc.

So my thinking is that it doesn’t mean much. As far as rumors go, it would be good to see if anyone from Pence’s team is at the statehouse ready to say he’s on the ballot for re-election for governor.

Thanks hoosiermama for the details. Good to have a freeper from Indiana, great state that put Trump way on top at the primary and forced Cruz to bow out.

In poker parlance, the identifying of Pence’s right hand man- lefty, is known as a “tell.”

At this point, if it’s anyone other than Pence, I’ll be very surprised.

Possibly Trump’s worst kept secret to date.
