1909-1912

Not every VEEP dies just short of election day. No matter, as his boss, William Howard Taft, lost reelection to Woodrow Wilson. An avid golfer, Mr. Sherman was the first VP renominated by a national convention.

Evan Bayh And Becoming VEEP in 2016
Senator and Governor of Indiana

While Sarah Palin and Joe Lieberman emerged out of the shadows to claim VP spots, Evan Bayh is becoming the true bridesmaid. Passed over in 2000, 2004 and 2008, it seems his only shot is premature retirement from Joe Biden or the second spot in 2016. Remember, Indiana did swing Democrat in 2008, so Bayh and his stock are rising.
