LBJ ran on the agenda of a popular President who had been assassinated and won big against someone widely understood to be an extremist. Pence is an extremist, and he will likely be defeated because he badly represents people who do not accept a fundamentalist-Protestant basis of governance. Appointed pols usually lose badly in election bids.
Yes, it is possible to be a closet extremist and get elected, as did Donald Trump. Mike Pence is not in the closet.
