Olympia, where are you? He probably would (will?) choose a Republican as a Unity Ticket

Condoleeza Rice or Christine Todd Whitman both have plenty of money and would push him to between four and eight percent.

Actually not a totally insane choice. Their platforms have significant overlap, and they've been two of the few candidates to mention cybersecurity as any sort of priority.

That said, I suspect that Webb would reach to his right for his running mate.

Jim Webb's whole deal is his love of guns, not sure why Bloomberg would even be on the list.

Whitman isn't actually the worst suggestion.

If he really wants to do this he needs to be the "I know how to beat ISIS and save us in the middle east" candidate.  People will believe it because he's a giant f**ing marine.  Pick a general, maybe Colin Powell, as his VP and make the case that the threats of ISIS getting a nuclear weapon and Iran overrunning the middle east are much greater than any issues we're facing back home, and that the two parties are so far to the left/right that they only care about their pet issues instead of focusing on what actually matters, the safety and security of our country and the world.

Lieberman was the cheerleader for a war that Webb opposed, so I doubt he'd be Webb's pick.

In many ways, I see Webb as the running mate for Donald Trump.

Anderson Cooper. That way he can blame him when he doesn't crack 0.5% of the vote.
