Of the VP picks from the last 50 years, probably Ed Muskie in 1968 did the most to help his ticket--winning Maine, a state that almost always went Republican (and would do so again for the next 20 years).

It is a bit more than 50 years, but Texas in the 1960 Election probably falls into the same category. The reason the Democrats won it was Lyndon Johnson.
