Would Hillary choosing Elizabeth Warren as her running mate help her chances or hurt them?

[Billy000]

The most glaring question is whether a female running mate would hinder Hillary's chances or not. I'm not sure it would. Warren is well liked by progressives and Hillary needs a true progressive to win over Bernie supporters. If she picked a centrist, it would only further turn off Bernie's supporters.

I also think gender isn't a big concern to conservatives for the most part. Many of them would likely tolerate a two-women ticket. Moreover, Bernie has popularized many progressive positions to both sides of the aisle. His numbers in hypothetical match up polls against Trump or any suspended 2016 republican candidate proves that. Warren shares those same values.

Hurt her. She's already got a lock on getting a majority of the women vote. I think she should pick someone from either Florida or Ohio to get a lock on one of those swing states.

Yeah, candidates from swing states would be ideal, but her biggest problem is winning over progressive democrats who do not like her.

I think it would be awesome. 'The Beast and the Squaw'. it would be like an Aesop's Fable with a happy ending. Trump would be President.

It would finish her off. I hope she does it.

Only dumbass trump supporters entertain such stupid nicknames. I mean everyone else knows that Trump is a lying, flip flopping sack of shit who 100% unqualified for public office.

I'm not sure which part is more inaccurate; that Conservatives or anyone else that's sane would tolerate Hillary, or that Bernie's positions appeal to both sides.

It's hard to say.

It would get a lot of the Sanders supporters, but it's tough to say how much of an issue a two-woman ticket would be.

Accidentally missed the name 'Trump' and thought you were describing Hillary.

Trump has no chance to win leaving Hillary in it for the win.

I'd say hurt her image and chances. For the people crossing over and willing to vote for Clinton instead of Trump, she needs to get someone more conservative-friendly and less scary, who doesn't alienate either side too much. If she is going for the Black/Latino minority vote, this isn't going to help either.

Hurt them...She likely won't gain enough women to offset the lose of men if she chose her.
