Nightmare scenario is if he picks Sarah Palin.
We already saw how it play out before when McCain was running against Obama. They picked a female to be his running mate and that didn't work. Since that failed, in round two with Romney they didn't pick a woman or a minority, instead they took the handsome white man approach and that also failed. They'll start the process all over again since they are running against a woman this time.

I think Palin killed McCain's chances. I wasn't a McCain fan but he said a few things I liked, and I especially liked it when he stood up to that woman who called Obama a Muslim. I thought "Wow - McCain = Cool?".
But yeah, I would *LOVE* to see Trump pick Palin to be his VP. IF he did that, Jon Stewart would come back out of retirement just to repeat the jokes that write themselves.
For a while I was thinking that Trump would pick Chris Christie. Christie is a loud-mouth like Trump, but then again, he's so toxic. "Bridgegate" may still end up biting him in the ass.
I guess we find out next week. Good luck, VP hopefuls!
