Seems like a math problem from that point.
How many of hers do you lose that simply won't vote at all?
How many do hers you lose that vote for McCain?
How many unlikely voters do you gain by her presence on the ticket somewhere? And how many (if any) McCain voters come over to the combined ticket?
Get reasonable answers to those & the choice becomes pretty simple one way or the other.
