It is widely reported that South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley, who gave the GOP response to the SOTU speech, criticized stands taken by presidential aspirants Trump and Cruz. Talk about dumb, Haley just disqualified herself as a vice presidential pick if either of the two current front-runners is nominated.
Perhaps Haley isn't interested in being VP if Trump or Cruz is nominated. That is an okay choice, even a principled one. However, going public with a position that puts her on the enemies list of the party's likely future leader is suicidally ill-advised.
