She's great, I agree, I'd actually be surprised to see her on a Sanders ticket.

Why would you be surprised?

IMO if Bernie gets the nomination I don't see him tapping EW as a VP, I don't know you it could be but I don't think it'll be EW, IMO if EW would run for VP she wouldn't have declined the nomination in '15.

I haven't looked at other potential VP candidates, Bernie needs a lot more delegates before that's even a concern IMO.

I *could*, however, see EW taking a high position in a Sanders cabinet.

That's a very good question, CV, right now I'll have to file it in the items-to-be-researched folder.

Man, this election just got real

The answer is that, should the Supreme Court split 4-4 on a decision, the ruling of the lower court would be upheld. I think this is a pretty stark illustration of the gravity of the Republican inaction.
