In reply to the discussion: Trump hints that Fallin and Brewer on VP short list [View all]Behind the Aegis
(53,915 posts)49. They would not be in play.
However, I do think they would be squeakers if Trump doesn't get a VP candidate which balances his deficiencies within the right-wing, Fallin would qualify; not sure about Brewer, though she is a whackadoo IMO. Much like the potential problems of people on the democratic side staying home if it is Clinton, the same is true on the republican side in regards to Trump. With both sides being disenchanted with both candidates, it really could be an odd election. Basically, we will see a sea of purple, not red and blue, as in past elections.
