Henry Cabot Lodge Jr. is currently the United States' 3rd Ambassador to the United States. Lodge comes from a well known political family, with his grandfather Lodge Sr. being the Senator of Massachusetts. Henry Cabot Lodge didn't initially support your run, instead favoring New York Governor Nelson Rockefeller, but after his campaign crumbled, he switched his support to you. He is also willing to serve on your ticket.
Lodge's greatest strength is his charisma and telegenic appearance, which would really help combat Kennedy in more ways than one, really denting Stevenson's hold over New England. Lodge is also more liberal than you are, which would really help the northern vote. Lodge also has a plethora of experience, and therefore would shield you from attacks on it.
Lodge's main weakness comes from the fact that if you pick him, you are going to be a ticket with two New Englanders, specifically ones from states that border each other. He would do nothing to help the geographical divide, and while the mountain states are firmly in your corner, you could always help to improve your numbers out there.
Regardless, if you want a liberal administration if you win. Lodge is the man to pick!","candidate_score":1,"running_mate":true,"scrollable":false,"partner":"1"}},{"model":"campaign_trail.candidate","pk":1009,"fields":{"first_name":"Margaret C.","last_name":"Smith","election":4,"party":"Republican","state":"Maine","priority":1,"description":"
Margaret Madeline Chase Smith is currently the United States senator from Maine. Picking Mrs. Smith would be a historic choice for you, as she would be the first women chosen to be on a major party ticket. While she gave tepid support for Goldwater during the primaries, she nevertheless supported you during the final voting. She has also made statements announcing her willingness to be placed on the VP ticket.
Mrs. Smith's big strengths come from her moderate to conservative viewpoints. She famously made a speech in 1950 called the \"Declaration of Conscience\" which spoke out against the growing recklessness in congress. She would also help tremendously with the female vote nation-wide, and would also help with a few conservative voters.
Her main upside would also be her main downside, as many people would be turned off at the idea of a female on the ticket, her conservatism could also push away a few moderates, she also wouldn't help with the geographical divide, as Maine and Connecticut fall within New England.
Regardless, if you want to make history then Margaret Chase Smith is your girl!

His main drawbacks is that he would do nothing to appeal to anybody outside the deep south. He is also pretty anti-semitic and would hurt with the jewish vote. But it wasn't like you had a chance with them.
