Kasich will help carry the rust belt. I think the decision will be made on shifting close states, and Kasich looks good there. Rubio may also help with hispanics and women. A more liberal pick would hurt GOP votes and probably not pick up any moderate voters.
More importantly Trump needs to show moderates that he represents change, and hillary represents corruption. But he can do that with Portman, and have an Heavy weight on International Policy.

That would work. West if from Florida and great on intl policy, and a lively personality. Or Trump could go all in with Thomas Sowell.

Carson would be good for Trump, he would be a good mediator. Trump has the fire Carson has the demeanor, both have brains. I would vote for a the crazy bastard next door before the hildabeast.

At least he would never have to doubt his loyalty.
The only thing worse than a liberal is a liberal that thinks they're a conservative.

Trump needs good optics for a VP choice. Susan Martinez is a strong possibility. A western Hispanic woman standing next to Trump as his political partner makes it harder to attack him as a misogynist and makes him look more friendly to women voters. The only down side is she may be damaged from a drunken run in with hotel security and police. Not sure how that plays into the decision. Senator Ernst of Iowa is another strong woman to stand next to Trump. I haven't heard Tim Scott speak but he's a distant possibility. Alan West has sexual harassment issues so he's a non starter.

Coulter was on 'Hannity' this afternoon discussing this very topic. She said something about the VP pick needing to be right on immigration or risk impeachment or assassination in the first 100 days. I'm not sure if she meant the veep would have to be aligned with Trump on it, or if the veep was supposed to temper Trump's position. Not sure whether it matters either way. If he wins, we better have a good replacement in the wings.

Trump likely will pick a female VP to negate the perception that he's a misogynst, and to counter the Hillary-estrogen crowd. Perhaps Jan Brewer? Whoever he picks must be able to deliver at least one state for him. If not a woman, he needs to tap into the Hispanic vote, so that would suggest Rubio. Whoever he selects will need to be an established politician, and not a first-timer such as Trump himself.

Trump won't pick a veep to prop up in the corner. Whoever works for Trump has to produce.

At least he would never have to doubt his loyalty. No matter. As long as, Cuba, Israel, or Canada are not in play.
