Do you wanna know how Paul Ryan has voted during his tenure in the house - here it is.

[PGalt]

Thanks for posting. Very interesting/informative/educational.

[Jacquerie]

It helps to read the column.

"I just hope Ryan can survive the VP debates..."

I can see Ryan putting the 'deer in the headlights' look on Biden before any debate.

[hummingbird]

"Git-R-Done".

Amen, Brother Larry!

"Are they just a mouthpiece?"

I'm wondering if Romney is going to take Ryan with a lot of economic issues and that Romney will take more on foreign affairs and dismantling the entire Obama presidency.

<> I hope Palin will get a nice Cabinet post. Interior?

Someone that voted for TARP is on the extreme right? Really?

[Baynative]

Don't forget that the original TARP plan was incremental and although it was authorized for as much as $700 Billion under Bush, only about 400 was actually dispersed.

That amount had some strings attached and the banking institutions were held (somewhat) to a repayment schedule of not being allowed to take profits until payback milestones were made. Somewhere near 60% of the bank loans were paid back in reasonably short order. But, the repayment of business loans almost halted completely in the next year as the Obama team took over and preferred government "participation" in the companies to actually recapturing the funds.

That program of taking shares of private industry continued through the huge Obama bailout efforts that were to follow with few strings attached beyond government ownership.

[Vermont Lt]

Ryan seems like decent enough guy. I am just not sure I believe the hype. I do know that he will wipe the floor with Hillary.

[Baynative]

"I do know that he will wipe the floor with Hillary."

Interesting.Freudian slip, maybe?

Earlier, I wondered if this pick might cause Obama to reevaluate his running mate.

[Vermont Lt]

Not at all. I don’t think Biden will be on the ticket.

Are you thinking Hildabeast, or someone else?
