I live in NJ. FWIW, there are alot of people that usually don't bother to vote because they assume the democrats will win by a margin whereby their vote won't mean anything. Christie caught the democrats off guard. With Obama, it will be the same way. People here are livid. They can't stand Obama. I wouldn't be surprised if NJ was in play.
I would think Susan Martinez from New Mexico should be the pick. A woman and hispanic.
I would like to see Ryan on the ticket.
But these are RINOS. It will be Portman and everyone in the MSM that is pointing Romney in that direction will say, “Who?”
And I can't stand Romney. Won't vote for him.
If the Republican Party wanted my vote they'd offer up a candidate that would pursue the party's stated planks. With the [in]actions of congress over F&F, the NY-23 incident, and the anointing of Romney I can only guess that they are all about talk and not about action.
(Hell, at least the Dems try to pursue their party-objectives. the Republicans are like a near-dead fish floating on the top of the fish-bowl making pathetic mouth/gill movements from time to time.)
