Catherine Cortez Masto for VEEP?

[Dr Oz Lost Party!]

My mind keeps wandering back to Senator CCM and I cannot help but think that she is probably the strongest choice for a veep candidate.

She's young, mixed latino, from a swing state, has a clean record, and has moderate views.

She'd be perfect for any male nominee (especially Cuomo or Franken)

[Rookie Yinzer]

I like her as a VP for Joe Biden, Sherrod Brown, or Al Franken.

I wonder how a Kirsten Gillibrand/Catherine Cortez Masto ticket would fare in a 2020 general election against Mike Pence (assuming Trump is impeached by then).  

[President Johnson]

A fine running mate for Steve Bullock.

[America Needs R'hllor]

Only if the Dems win Nevada Governor in 2018.

A fine running mate for Steve Bullock.

STOP

[Kamala]

Cortez-Masto inherited the Reid-machine; she needs to stay in Nevada until it's more solidly Democratic before considering leaving the Senate; she'll likely pursue a leadership role in the Senate as time progresses.

If she pursues leadership in the Senate I can see her or Van Hollan succeeding Schumer, especially as many others in their senate “generation” seem to be more focused on presidential politics.

I just keep thinking of Montez in VEEP, so yes.

[Mister Mets]

She has many of Kamala Harris's strengths, except she comes from a swing state, would represent a milestone we haven't seen (first hispanic candidate for national office), lacks the California baggage and has been married for a while.

A slight negative is that it doesn't seem she has had children, and I can't think of the last time that was the case with any major candidate for national office.

[Cactus Jack]

Franken/Masto would be a killer ticket.

[🐒Gods of Prosperity🔱🐲💸]

Mexican-Americans will not vote for someone named Cortez. 

[The Mikado]

As long as NV has a D governor. Let's not get in the business of throwing away Senate seats.
