Considering Rick Santorum finished 2nd in the 2012 Republican Nomination,keeping with the trend of the former runner-up being the candidate the next cycle,How would Rick Santorum do in 2016 with his Running mate as John Kasich.
He won the nomination due to support in rust-belt states,slightly edging out Trump due to Santorum's personal campaign strategy.
Everything else is the same in Otl,Discuss with maps if you'd like.

My guess is probably a very narrow Clinton win where she holds the majority of the rust-belt and does better than expected in the southwest and that Maine district despite the Comey letter/DNC stuff late in the campaign

Clinton/Kaine : 278
Santorum/Kasich : 260

Major Results :

Pennsylvania : Santorum +1.9
Ohio : Santorum + 5
Iowa : Santorum + 5.8
Florida : Clinton + 2.4
Colorado : Clinton +3.9
Nevada : Clinton + 3.2
Arizona : Santorum + 4.1
Wisconsin : Santorum +0.7
North Carolina : Santorum + 3.2
Virginia : Clinton + 4.7
New Hampshire : Clinton + 3.5

Kasich doesn't win his home state where he held a 60% approval rating?

Ryan lost Wisconsin. VP's can't carry a state on their own.  Esp. with someone as polarizing as Santorum at the top of the ticket.  There'a a reason he lost PA by 20 points in 2006.
