  • Well, I do respect Rubio a ton - but I'd rather him stay in the Senate for now.

    I can see Portman - but I'd rather him be more like Paul Ryan.

    I can really see Paul Ryan.

    But my choice is a guy who has the experience and the nads to help Romney get our budget balanced,

    and get America working again, and stop the racial hostility and the hostility vs the Constitution from day 1. He's

    Daniel Whitney. We'll see - but he is excellent, flies under the radar, and could really be the "guy".

  • Yes, if there's one thing the Republicans on this board won't stand for anymore it's racial hostility.

  • You don't like Daniel Whitney, Heck?

    Why is that ?😠

  • I don't know who that is, old man.

  • Well, he isn't well known to be any kind of VP possibility.

    But I've heard good things from certain folks that he could be the one.

    That's just what I think - who knows?

  • As far as rubio gos I don't think it makes much sense that he'd be excluded from the short list.

    But let's say that it's true that the vetting process just hasn't gotten rolling yet.

    In that case I kind of wonder what the point of the story is besides just an attempt to make the romney campaign look bad.

    By the way M S N B C is all over the christie/mafia link!

  • ROF,LMAO !!!!

  • Tupa, take your pick here, too. I know you were a Daniels guy, but he's out.

    I've got a friend who thinks it's going to be an outside the box choice from the business community, like former FedEx CEO Fred Smith. I don't know if I see that, but I wouldn't discount it. some others think Lynne Cheney is a dark horse. I wouldn't think he'd want to go there either.

    I still think it's Christie.

  • I dont think Rubio or Ryan were ever under serious consideration - they are just there to appease certain groups. Somehow the fact that Ron Paul has set himself up to have a heavy hand in the VEEPstakes at the convention has gotten glossed over. Maybe because he doesnt plan to do anything but solicit some promises from the process, but I think it's an interesting angle nonetheless. I would personally not choose Christie - he's a big fat moderate republican Biden, and none of those factors help at all. I do think Portman is in the lead, but I wouldn't take him against the field at this point. I'd be interested if he found someone with a strong foreign policy POV (Condi?), but doubt that issue is important enough to be a deciding factor. I'd be happy with find with Portman or Jindal. I'd be endlessly entertained by Rand Paul.

    👍

  • Completely pulled out of my ass, if I had to wager I'd say it's:

    - Christie

    - Portman

    - Jindal

    In that order. Here's the case for Christie: he's the attack dog that can get people excited about the ticket. He can bring Palin's snark that got them so fired up at the convention without the rest of the Palin baggage/idiocy. He's taken on the unions. He's not afraid to speak his mind. He's the opposite of everything people hate about Romney.

    I'd do it.

    Portman and Jindal are serious people and I'd be happy to see them on the ticket for the country's sake. But they don't bring any personality whatsoever. Portman doesn't even seem to help in Ohio, according to the polling. Though it could be so tight that he could bring you a 1% shift and that's enough to win you the state.

    I'm sure Mitt has it all laid out in a spreadsheet.
