re: #60 Big Steve

Is there nothing lamer in US politics than a losing vice-presidential candidate? I am testing my memory but has anyone lost a VP election and been able to be successfully on the national stage afterward?

Depends how you define “successfully”. Sarah Palin’s made a lot of money…

ohhhh!!!! got one!!!!

Ford/Dole ‘76. Bob Dole continued in the senate for eons, and did achieve his party’s nomination for president 20 years later.
