Won't happen. Too many risks.


The impact would be greatest in Republican states. The heart of the Democratic coalition is not going to jump for Romney (or Trump). Doing it without a major-party label, and while splitting the vote with the Republican candidate, is impossible.

There will be a large number of GOP leaders who will refuse to support Trump. As David Brooks wrote: "People will be judged by where they stood at this time." That core will position themselves to pick up the pieces in 2020. That's why I doubt that Govs Martinez or Haley join a Trump ticket.
