Could be worse. Pence is not a total wuss. The establishment forced him to endorse Cruz but he pretty much screwed them with his Trump/Cruz endorsement. Said more good things about Trump than Cruz and that was before he was being considered for VP.
Lots of experience, a measured countenance, could be worse.
That’s what you want to hear, “could be worse”.
Pence would be a great VP, with much experience to “guide” Trump. My preference is Newt, who might just be a better Guide, with a better understanding of history, as well as experience as successful Speaker of the House, which ain’t a bad resume.
I agree. I was a little cold to the thought at first, but then looking at both Newt and Christie, I think there would be too much attention paid to their flaws between Newt’s history and personal life and prior attacks on Bill Clinton (therefore this just looking like revenge) and Christie’s off the cuff persona a la Trump and it would take Trump off message having to defend the picks. I heard Pence make a speech the other night and was very impressed. He “looks” and “acts” presidential (whatever that means) which should make the Cruz wing of the party feel not so bad about their candidate getting schlonged, and is a perfect counter to the rough and tumble style of Trump...plus sets up 2020 nicely as I don’t see Trump wanting two terms...too boring after he wins and kicks butt and he wants to enjoy the fruits of his labor and his family, not to mention golf in Scotland. Allows Pence to continue the conservative leadership this country so desperately needs for another eight years potentially and shores up the Supreme Court for a generation or more.
