Pence steps on his own dick about as much as Trump does... They look like a hilarious match made in heaven

It doesn't.

He had a chance if he put a minority on the ticket.

Now, two white guys.

Should it matter? Nope. But it will. :nod:

Maybe Mr. Pence will rip a mask off at the podium revealing that he's been a negro all along.

And BTW I'm really disappointed in Pence for being willing to associate himself with Trump. He's lost his credibility as far as I'm concerned.

Though, Columbus, IN does have some beautiful architecture. So, I guess Pence has that going for him.

News reports suggest Trump WAS stupid enough to pick Christie but was talked out of it. Supposedly wanted to revoke his offer to Pence after Pence had already accepted it.

Too bad. Wish he'd have picked Christie. The hard core Republican base hates Christie.

Well, I guess he's not as stupid as you thought, because he picked someone who might help him with that very base. :coffee:

There's also the possibility that at least some hard core Republican base members will just consider Pence to be a sell out.

That's ridiculous. Pence won't cost Trump a single GOP vote that he hasn't already lost.

Pence should be forced to work all of Trumps frivolous Law Suits...
The number is something 3,500 (yeah that's right)

He's slowed down since running for president - he's only filed 70 in the last 12 months
