In the wake of Tuesday’s Republican tsunami, Bloomberg Politics managing editor Mark Halperin is doing the job that a lot of Americans just won’t do — put in writing a selection of 2016 GOP presidential tickets. We’re guessing the #ready hashtag means any of these pairs could start today (if those other tenants didn’t have two more years on the White House lease).
So, what sounds good?
Romney-Ernst, Bush-Sandoval, Christie-Rice, Portman-Snyder, Huckabee-Ayotte, Perry-Pence, Kasich-Jindal, Paul-Haley, Ryan-Baker #ready

That’s great news — but we’re not sure if this monstrosity would help with that.
Frankenstein nominee: @JebBush record, @GovChristie fearlessness, @robportman likeability, @GovMikeHuckabee populism, @SenRandPaul tactics
