    Of course, but I don’t think that him as the VP candidate changes the odds of that much relative to the other contenders who don’t come with that risk.

    VP candidates don’t usually matter much in an election unless they’re freaks with a couch fetish or something weird like that.

      As dumb and superficial as it sounds, my guess is a fighter pilot and astronaut plays better to swing state voters than governors of other states.
