2008: Palin helped solidify/turn-out conservative base. Hurt among moderates and independents. Biden helped defuse inexperience argument. More of a choice aimed at governing, less campaigning.
2004: Cheney did exactly what he was meant to do: be a bulldog and foil to the generally optimistic Bush. Edwards was intended to provide charisma to the ticket, failed to make an impact.
2000: See above for Cheney. Lieberman helped among the Jewish vote, but didn't campaign enough to make a serious impact. Also let Cheney walk all over him in the debates.
