How would the results differ? I know that there was some voters who voted for Dukakis because of Quayle, so would Kirkpatrick have helped Bush win by a larger margin? It seems like it would have been a smarter pick.

Bush/Kirpatrick-483 EV
Dukakis/Bensten-55 EV

Kirkpatrick energizes the female vote in favor of Bush Sr., and thus NY, WI, and WA flip to Bush.

It wouldn't have changed much. Kirkpatrick was an ugly neocon.
