Would the Veep selection ever cause you to vote for/not vote for the prez candidate? Why?

No but it would cause me great disappointment

It would have to be a really awful person for me to not vote for my party's candidate.  Of course, in the case of McCain/Palin, I would have voted for Kermit and Miss Piggy before I would have voted for either of them.

Happy Sunday, Rosie. :)

Depends on the candidate's health. The veep is second in line so is important.

I've never been persuaded to vote for someone because of the number two spot. Now more than ever that's the case.

Hahahahahahahahahahaha! Gee Spunky I LOVE Kermit and I think Miss Piggy, while not a perfect candidate, has some charm and a certain je ne sais qois. I think her heart is in the right place even if sometimes she blurts things out that are surprising! Thank you for your lively answer m'dear!  :)

Thank you for your reply PP and Happy Monday to thee! :)

They certainly couldn't be worse than what we're looking at now. :)

 I dunno. Sarah Palin rather than Mike Pence? John Edwards (you know the guy who cheated on his dying wife and impregnated his mistress while running for prez?) rather than Tim Kaine. I think that would be worse.

I almost did not vote for Bill Clinton because of Al Gore being picked as VP.... because of music censorship issues with his wife.
I was encouraged to vote for McCain because of Palin as VP....McCain is a RINO.

So yes a VP pick could influence me to not vote or to vote for a candidate. Using the assumption that VP pick leads to how they will govern.
