Even if she were a Veep candidate, a Republican Senate would never vote for Hillary Clinton.
While I agree with that statement in its spirit. I think there would be an anti Cruz/trump backlash from progressive GOP members. Much in the same way Boehner needed democrats to pass some of his nonsense.
But normally I would agree they would choose to stay In party. I just think there is some there who want to stick it to ether of those 2. Enough to swing it since the senate is so closes.
