Excellently stated... or, as in the book "Animal Farm" - all animals are created equal, some are jut more equal than others. Great if you're a pig, eh?

Christie was only going to help in New Jersey.

Pence helps in Ohio, Iowa, Wisconsin, Missouri, Virginia and perhaps Colorado and Minnesota.
Christie has a 26% approval rating in NJ. He was not going to help anyway.

Pence seems to have a face of stone. I wonder if the guy has facial paralysis? He always has the same mad face.

If that happens, we end up with President Pence.
If that didn't happen with Obama, I doubt it would happen to any other President because of not knowing the Constitution. Obama is suppose to be the Constitutional scholar yet he tried to write and implement his very own laws and was struck down by the Supreme Court several times for overstepping his bounds. So there goes that theory.

He doesn't help in any of them. A VP candidates don't make any real difference in voting patterns. People aren't voting on the VP they are voting for the President. Pence is an unknown to most people as it is. Not like they are hearing about someone they already know and love. The guy is an unknown commodity outside of Indiana. That being said, I don't understand where you are getting your ideas on these states from. Colorado, Ohio, Wisconsin, Virginia, and Minnesota are not really chock full of social conservatives. That's not really going to be all that an appeal to states with the voter compositions they have in the general election.

Not really, because each SC has a different interpretation of what is within constitutional authority and what isn't. Going with your line of reasoning almost no President knows the constitution.

And no President would be impeached for not knowing the Constitution. That was my point from the other post that said Trump would be impeached for not knowing the Constitution which is absurd.
