Pence pick frees Clinton to consider Kaine for VP role
Trump’s selection of Mike Pence as vice president may push Hillary Clinton to contemplate a more moderate running mate such as Virginia Senator Tim Kaine. Kaine, a former governor, lieutenant governor and mayor of Richmond, could appeal to independents and more liberal Republicans, while Pence reassures religious conservatives. Democratic strategists say Kaine could help in Virginia, a swing state, and Tom Vilsack is another possible pick.
