Well, he could do worse. Portman has seemed decent so far as a Senator.
The BIG question though - would his replacement be appointed by Kasich?

If Romney is the Nominee, I would like to see him pick Marco Rubio.

Mike Allen predicts that if Romney gets nomination, he would pick Rob Portman as his running mate. Ping to Today show list.

If vp is senator, there will be special election. Former senator or governer, or red state senator/gov would be better

rom-knee would be well advised to accept the selection made for him by his handlers...

But it matters not, for if the economy improves, the stain will be around for yet another four years.

I like Portman, but that is the most boring ticket in political history.

On the idea that Romney can simply assume he, being the Republican nominee, will carry the base, such a selection makes sense. Portman would help in Ohio, and that state could be the pivotal state of the election. Plus, it could help in the Senate race in that state. But, no, Romney cannot make that assumption. He would have to secure the base. This means a Protestant and it means somebody recognized to be a conservative. One person who fits the bill is Tennessee Congressman (her choice) Marsha Blackburn. Besides, Portman has a similar, corporate image. A numbers guy. And, there’s no guarantee we’d win a special election to replace him were he elected Vice President.

My money’s on Gov. McDonnell. Rubio and Martinez have promise, but need more executive experience.

BTW, how come nobody seems to push for Jindal anymore? He’s got a great record, 2 big elections, been a part of moving LA from Dem to Rep, and young enough to do two terms. I remember he was widely panned form his response to Obama’s speech but that was a pretty tough spot - with a majority of Americans being all hopey/changey at the time.
