The Demoncrats and the media talked the economy down 2007-2009....that is a fact.

Right?! I only wish Ryan could debate obamma, he would
absolutely destroy him. Plus, obamma already has an emotional dislike of Paul Ryan. This is going to really
rattle him. I promise you that loser knows,despite his
narcissism, that he is no intellectual or an articulate
match.

Bwwaahahahaha...

I do not like Romney. Dont trust him...but maybe ryan will help make a difference:

http://www.weeklystandard.com/blogs/excerpts-ryans-speech_649757.html?page=2

“The commitment Mitt Romney and I make to you is this:

We won’t duck the tough issues...we will lead!

We won’t blame others...we will take responsibility!

We won’t replace our founding principles...we will reapply them!

We will honor you, our fellow citizens, by giving you the right and opportunity to make the choice:

What kind of country do we want to have?

What kind of people do we want to be?

We can turn this thing around. Real solutions can be delivered. But, it will take leadership. And the courage to tell you the truth.

I am all in. I was so happy to see Romney choose Ryan, because it proves what I believed - Mitt Romney wants to win, and will do what he needs to do to win.

The liberal yappers are all talking about the supposed disadvantage that Ryan will have with senior voters, because they can't admit the truth - this election is a referendum on Obama, meaning whichever side turns out their bases wins. Ryan was by far the most conservative of the potential running mates, and no one will do more to draw conservatives to the ticket.

This was a bold choice!

I just hope Romney has the courage to turn Ryan loose, and the campaign does not try to throttle him back to Romney-wuss-mode, like McCain tried to do with Palin.

Allen West I want for President!
Rubio would have been relentlessly belittled as a token pick for the Hispanic vote and his message would have been drowned out I think.
Ryan will be a lot trickier for the MSM and Obama, because it’s the economy the economy the economy, and they can’t engage him on any level without it bringing up the economy, which they’d like everyone to forget about. Now they may try to scare people with the granny off the cliff- but the thing is, Americans are already scared re: the economy for their futures and their children’s futures. So I think this is great.
What’s rather interesting is- I am going to go out on a limb and say Ryan is not, in the long term, interested in being President. So does that open a door for West for president in 8 years assuming Romney/economy does better and has 2 terms? Because likely in 4 years and definitely in 8, the islamist problem is going to be really huge.
The world is going to need the USA to lift them up first economically and then against islam.

CNN sounds like they are in a bit of freak-out mode over this.

You can tell they thought they already marginalized this guy, and are repeating every MediaMatters/DailyKos talking point they can think of.

Great pick for VP.

Ryan is articulate and an expert on the Federal budget.

He took on Obama at that phony summit on Obamacare back in Feb. 2010.

He will be able to defend his budget, in spite of the co-ordinated attack by the Dems/MSM, tha tis alread tinder way.

Gov. McDonnell at the mike-history is about to be made.

May God shed His grace on us one more time.
