What do we really know about Patraeus’ politics? He could be another Colin Powell or Weasely Clark.

Patraeus is alleged to have attended the secretive ‘Bilderberg’ meetings for at least the past 3 years.

HELL NO!

William G. "Jerry" Boykin would be though:

Anyway, Mitt is NOT going to select a VP for fear that he might find himself standing in his/her shadow; team players or not...

NO. Next question!

Led by warriors? You're living in the wrong nation, pal.

I'm hoping the VP choice isn't another lawyer from the Harvard/Yale cabal.

We know that when the burning Koran incident happened he came out swining with the O’dummies and Ms. Lindsay Graham claiming it should be against the law to insult Islam. Shira.

He’s not all that attached to the constitution limiting his rule.

I just voted no.

Another stupid idea.

Not nearly as stupid as Rice, for which I am thankful, but still pretty stupid.

Aren’t there any CONSERVATIVES around? Why grasp at moderates/unknowns?

Love the uniform, but....MEH...!

Not Conservative enough to counter the ill-effects of Massachusettes hair helmet.

Sorry —stronger medicine required.

Petraeus works for Obama at the CIA.

Like the top convention speakers, Romeny seems to be rolling out anybody and everyone EXCEPT conservatives. Romeny, you better toe the constitutional, small-government, individual liberty, and property-rights line.

No. He is not a conservative. He went along with Obama’s terrible Rules of Engagement that were responsible for killing and wounding numerous American troops. He went along with numerous other stupid or evil policies, without a peep of objection.

Yes, it’s an officer’s duty to stand by his men. But sometimes the only way of doing so is to resign in protest.

The Surge worked in Iraq, but Petraeus was far to willing to risk our troops so as to butter up our Muslim “allies.”

Good man , I’ve talked to him a few times . However I must say , he does not communicate back very well . Perhaps he exists a bit too much the ‘high tower’ , as described in Psalms

Like all good generals, the man hasn’t given a clue to the general population what his political views are.

When Wesley Clark stopped being a general we discovered he was a pretty liberal democrat.

If I had to guess, I’d guess that taking a place in the Obama CIA could mean that we’re dealing with a political twin of Jon Huntsman.

For all I know, though, Petraeus could be a solid conservative.
