Based off of all 4 debates on the Republican side, both Rubio and Fiorina have been deemed winners twice. What are the chances in them becoming a ticket? Rubio is young, accomplished, appeals to millennial and well as minorities (which Republicans need to win), while Fiorina (while many may consider her record at HP bad, it was actually better then most think) defeats the lefts redundant idea of the rights "War on Women", knows a lot of world leaders, breast cancer survivor so she understand the medicare system well, etc. A Fiorina/Clinton debate would be a quite a thing to watch (probably better ratings than the Fox News GOP debate)

To me, this is the ticket that would make Democrats s**t in their pants. What are the chances?

I really like Fiorina, but she's untested when it comes to government. I'd like to see her in a Cabinet position first.

I think Rubio would be well served by individuals like Susanna Martinez (who is very popular among all factions of the party), Tim Scott (a Tea Party pick), or Kelly Ayotte (a female Republican Senator elected in a generally Democratic state).

No chance. Rubio has his money on Trump wanting him as VP. Rubio has a reputation as a butt kisser. He tries to ingratiate himself to people who can help his career move forward. Why doesn't he ever have a bad word for Donald Trump? It's part of his plan....

You honestly think Trump is going to win the nomination? You're being as crazy as Trump fans usually are.

But she can't answer a single question with facts. She sounds great, but she says something entirely unrelated to whatever a moderator asks her.

Moderator: justNancy, how do you feel about the weather today? It's been unseasonably warm.
justNancy: Yes, the reason prices are so high in the supermarkets is because of the lunar eclipse.

No chance, but I'm sure the Democrats would love it.

Will you please explain what you mean by "so she understands the Medicare system well."

How is her experience with breast cancer related to Medicare? Just asking.

VP can be a real dead end to the presidency. Often they have to keep a low profile and history forgets them. Just ask Dan Quayle who?

It seems Rubio wants it very badly, if not this year then the next election or the next.

This crop of GOPers is so incredibly weak that I really have to wonder why they are even news worthy. Whoever wins the nomination will be absolutely trounced in the election and not because they are conservatives but because they are clueless nitwits. I've long joked that Mickey Mouse could win the nomination for POTUS. Little did I think it would get worse than that in reality. The GOP has really scraped the bottom of the barrel this time. Not a single decent nominee in the bunch.
