With former Virginia Gov. Bob McDonnell now being found guilty in this corruption trial, if this case never happened; and if he was still squeaky-clean, did you ever see him running for president or being vice president in 2016 or beyond?

Vice-President maybe, but the GOP 2016 field was just too crowded.

He never seemed very presidential, or even vice presidential, to me.

No. I never heard much about him outside of presidential/VP hype. No chance now, of course.

Never understood the Beltway hype about him, always seemed Generic R.

That's a good thing, since Generic R does way better than any real candidate. Wink

Plus, he's from Virginia.

Not really for President. Maybe for Vice President.

I kept hearing talk (from a variety of people) that he would run for Senate in 2018 against Kaine. Of course, that isn't happening now.

Nope, he never rose to the level of a serious contender.

Years ago, sure. He got elected big in a major swing state, and had fairly conventional qualifications.
