Mitt’s not going to be anybody’s VP. Mitt would make a great running mate for anybody, given his ability to work a crowd, and to debate the issues, but I just don’t see him as 2nd banana to anybody. Look at his career. He’s been in charge for the last 40 years. Don’t see that changing anytime soon.

Mitt has always played an executive role but VP is no slouch job (just ask Cheney) especially in a Senate that will be closely divided. If Mitt truly wants to be president I think he knows that his best bet at overcoming the Mormon issue and getting conservatives to forget his liberal past is to be a red-meat conservative Cheney like VP only without the advanced age, and bad heart.) Romney's business record and his stance on Islamofascism show he is a long term thinker. Fred is no spring chicken, has cancer, and may even if healthy choose not to seek a 2nd term. Waiting 4 years or even 8 (he is young) is not beyond Romney's scope of thinking.
