@DKarol My favorite counter-example: Lloyd Bentsen. In 1988, VP Bentsen ran 800,000 votes behind Senator Bentsen in Texas, where he could run for both offices at the same time thanks to LBJ. — PolitiTweet.org

@DKarol I'm also a believer that a VP doesn't have much effect on anything in most election years. Also, the states of many VP nominees are not in play: Examples: CT (Lieberman), WY (Cheney), DE (Biden), AL (Palin), IN (Pence). — PolitiTweet.org

@DKarol You've sent me down the mental rabbit hole of recalling how many times I heard Dukakis in 1988 burble about the "Boston-Austin" nexus that so helped JFK in 1960. — PolitiTweet.org
