Last week’s question was:  When was the last time two presidential candidates battled each other in the primaries one year and wound up on a ticket together in a later year?

The answer?  It was in 1996, when Bob Dole picked Jack Kemp as his running mate.  Eight years earlier, Dole and Kemp both ran for the GOP presidential nomination, which was won by George Bush.

And the randomly selected winner is … Mike Donohue of Shelburne, Vt.  Mike wins the coveted Political Junkie button.
