Who wins and why? FYI I like the Ryan/Cruz, ticket to win, but I would be voting for the Gillibrand Wassermann-Schultz ticket.

Ryan/Cruz in a landslide.  They would also get my vote, a feat no Presidential Republican Candidate has achieved since Governor George W. Bush in 2000.

I suspect a Blue Dog would fairly easily beat a pair of far-right Republicans.

Simply put Senator Gillibrand's polices mirror my own personal views better than the Ryan/Cruz ticket. However, I like them to win because I believe picking Senator Cruz would make Rep. Ryan more competitive with Latino voters...

Gillibrand is no longer a Blue Dog.

I can't remember her ever being a true Blue Dog.  She was a flaky Blue Dog initially, but quickly changed to more of a Yellow Dog.

Why does Wasserman-Schultz keep on getting put on posters' VP lists? She's exactly what's wrong with the Democratic party and I thought that Paul Ryan taught us that a House member is a pretty poor choice as VP.

Gillbrand wins though. Ryan/Cruz is essentially a Tea Party ticket and would scare the living daylights out of independents.

I would say, after 8 years of Obama, a narrow Ryan/Cruz victory...but Gillibrand would still carry NV and NH. Otherwise, this map.

Narrow Gilllibrand win, but I'd probably vote for Ryan/Cruz, more for Cruz.

Gillibrand: 326
Ryan: 212 

Even with 8 years of fatigue, the Democrats will win due to the Republican ticket being essentially a Tea Party ticket with no balance.  Ryan might excite his base, but independents will break for Gillibrand.

The thought of Vice President Debbie Wasserman-Schultz is absolutely terrifying. It all depends on the economy, but with Obama's approval around 50%, I'd say this:

And folks were talking about Ryan not being a help in Wisconsin... DWS will have absolutely no effect on Florida. 0. Less than 0: she might be a drag on the ticket. Nobody knows her. Nobody likes her. Goodbye.

Miller '64
Ferraro '84
Kemp '96
Ryan '12

Active Congressional Representatives do not get elected VP.

Lieberman '00

A Jewish nominee for Vice-President is irrelevant in most states.
