It's Mitt

  • Has Santorum actually dropped out?

    His best chances are either try to unite the party with VP that is similar to Santorum in beliefs, or try to go after moderates and pick a VP that is more of a moderate.

  • I'm betting Rubio.

    I do like Christie too. And Ryan.

    Dark horse Ohio's Rob Portman.

    WSS

  • I think Portman's the type who might be in the cabinet, but is also tainted by having been the head of the OMB under Bush. He's also not going to excite anyone. So I wouldn't think so, but I wouldn't say he's off the list either.

    I'd be very surprised if it's Santorum.

  • I'd bet dollars to dog turds that it won't be Santorum.

    Portman could help deliver Ohio but like I said dark horse.

    WSS

  • I don't think Portman even gets Romney Ohio. He'd help, but it's not like he's some sort of Ohio legend.

    Again, Romney's big problem? It's women and Hispanics. He's getting killed here. He simply can't win the election if he doesn't improve in both categories. If the Republican Party had any sense they'd tell Rick and Newt that it's over and to shut the fuck up because nothing has helped Obama's re-election prospects more than having America listening to the alternative.

    Long way to go. Mitt can recover some of those numbers. March will be a distant memory in September.

    The other problem? As long as Mitt's been in politics, the longer people see him, the less they like him. He doesn't wear well.

    I tend to think Romney is going to need events to change, because he or his VP pick alone aren't enough to win this election.

  • I'm looking forward to all of those Republicans who hated Mitt quickly coming to the opinion that he's the second coming of Reagan and all that stands between us and darkest night.

    I kind of hope he picks Christie. I kind of like Christie.

    Oh you'll hate his guts soon enough if you gets on the ticket.

  • No, I like Christie's presentation. And he's not a nut. I'm not sure it's very presidential, but I wish more politicians expressed themselves the way he does.

    I want a sane ticket. I don't want him to feel like he's got to pull a Palin. That's what we don't need. Our political system has been debased enough.

    You're right. Palin, Obama ...pretty much a wash.

  • Newt's latest ad. Enjoy what you're going to have to hold your nose and vote for.

    Biden actually, but I get your point. She's much more experienced.

  • She can see Russia from her house!

    I hope Palin gets back in the game somehow. It's just so damn funny.

    Up is down.

  • Mitt and Ron know the most about the economy/economics. The economy is the issue. Ron Paul is just a little too out there for the everyday voter.

  • Ron Paul knows about the most about the economy?

    In my mind, Ron Paul is clueless about the modern financial system, and wants to revert it back to the gold standard. He's a bit of a crank on economic matters.

    Gingrich knows more about the economy than Paul.

  • Ron Paul is a nut. He knows money. But as president?

    Nobody on earth takes him seriously.

  • I wouldn't even vote for him and I'm supposed to be a supporter (college kid)

    His seems more like a behind the scenes idea man, not a president.

    Who said I didn't believe in God?
