Theoretically, we could have a Whig-PA merger soon and then run TR on their ticket sometime down the line for maximum Roosevelt potential. Then again, we probably shouldn't and wouldn't.

TR is a non-starter for me, as a presidential or vice-presidential nominee.  I don't see any reason to put that corporatist, war-mongerering bigot on any ticket.  His one real redeeming policy was his environmentalism, but we can get that elsewhere without nominating such an odious individual.  I should add that IRL, Henry Clay Frick was even quoted as saying "He got down on his knees to us.  We bought the son of a bitch."  The context of that quote was about Roosevelt asking Frick for money to ensure that he carried New York in the 1904 Presidential election.  Besides, the rural farmer and the urban worker must rise up and unite against the robber barons Wink
