MITT MATCH
While Mitt Romney’s set of paid PR minions are busy pushing out Mitt for Vice President spin, McCain campaign insiders say that while it’s true they have polled Romney on the bottom of the ticket, the data confirms that such a move would be a political disaster for the party.

“Mitt tanks the ticket,” says a McCain insider. “We lose fiscal conservatives. We lose social conservatives. We lose Catholics. We lose evangelicals. All the groups were spending time and money on bringing into the camp would be lost. He just doesn’t help us enough to do something like this, as much as Mitt might think we should. He doesn’t even win us Massachusetts.”

“He just doesn’t help us enough to do something like this, as much as Mitt might think we should. He doesn’t even win us Massachusetts.”

And what genius ever thought Mitt would win Mass. for a Republican ticket? If that’s the possibility McCain people have been contemplating, they need a new team of analysts. No serious person would ever think Mitt or any Republican could pull Mass. away from the Dems. in a presidential election.

I saw the thread where this McCain insider supposedly relayed all that information. But, as McCain lovers as so apt to say. Where else are they gonna go? Do they think Mitt puts southern states into the Obama column?

I put little or no value on that so-called insider report. Mitt would be the best campaigner, and he campaigned little in the south earlier. He could win over many conservatives if he actually campaigned in their states and spoke to their concerns.
