Draft Paul Ryan for President

AMEN!!!

Draft Paul Ryan for President

Ryan will take it to Obama head on just like Newt and Palin will. Romney - he will go after Obama at the same level as the GOP's last candidate - remember that one? Don't Call Him Hussein or Liberal

"McCain is in Cincinnati. Mrs. Bill Clinton is reporting that a McCain supporter repeatedly calls Barack Obama [instead] Barack Hussein Obama. This supporter -- it was essentially a talk show host but I'm not sure, was on the mic at a McCain rally and kept referring to Obama as Barack Hussein Obama. Now, may I ask a simple question? Is that his name? It is. So why can't it be used? Because McCain apologized for this. McCain went out there, after the event was over and virtually apologized and said that kind of disparaging reference to his opponent is not the way he runs his campaign."

There was, during the summer, a short (one week) push by some people in the Republican party to try and encourage Paul Ryan to run. If I may use a Chris Matthews' quote, "I felt a thrill run up my leg"; or, something to that effect. I would have loved for Ryan to run. However, he came out fairly quickly to put the kabosh on the rumor and say that he was not running.

We have the two or three guys that are going to end up being our nominees. Two of them are deeply flawed candidates. I am not happy about my choices; but, they are my choices and whoever gets the nomination will get my vote because my prime reason for voting this year is to get Obama out of there.
