    I'll predict that none of the candidates currently running will be a VP running mate. I think this is all or nothing for Hillary. If she loses the nomination or gets it and loses to the GOP candidate then she will retire from public life.

    On the GOP side there's been to much back biting and acrimony to select a rival as veep.

    On the Dem side, given the incredible stupidity of the GOP alienating Latinos, if Hillary is nominated she will pick Julian Castro if Trump, Cruz or Rubio is nominated. If it's an establishment GOP that's nominated I think she'll choose Evan Bayh as he would help her consolidate the Midwest and Bayhs moderate reputation would balance Clintons more liberal one. That and Bayh is well respected in Congress, is very experienced politically and has a higher trust factor that would help balance her ticket.

    If Bernie wins he will either decide to go with momentum and enthusiasm as well as a partner ideologically on the same page and would take Elizabeth Warren. If he decides to balance his ticket I think he'll pick Mark Warner. Warners private business sector background and being from an important swing State would balance his ticket nicely. I think Sanders would probably balance his ticket. Two New Englanders on the same ticket is not a good idea.

    Yeah, the new "attack" on Rubio is that he uses talking points. Big whoop, every campaign uses talking points. In this case the talking point is talking points.

    It's likely a moot point.

    It wasn't really that use talking points, it's just how silly he loved getting the same talking points over and over and over again.

    dude it wasn't just talking points... he kept repeating the same lines (that had nothing to do with the current discussion) verbatim, word for word. People at home throught their dvrs were messed up. He was like a robot. Christie tore him up.
