I think Romney has class, although many are blind to it because of their bias toward him for one reason or another. He’s not perfect ... none of them are.

Biden has a rap sheet.

If JB is new-born-baby-Kevorkian Marxist Obama's veep choice, you'll be treated to his history of quite serious personal honesty and character "issues".

I suspect that GOP strategerists are holding their collective breaths, hoping for Biden.

I dont know why the Romneybots were so rude as to post something like that...

I’m not a mind reader...

RomneyBots do tend to be spooky and rude at times...

Like everyone else, I'm guessing the order of probability:

1. Pawlenty
2. Romney
3. Palin
4. Ridge

I'm thinking he will wait to see who Obama picks, and then choose one of these four.

What in the heck does that mean? That sounds stranger than any "RomneyBot" I've ever seen post.

Guess I'm late to the party here.

> Perhaps his presence on the ticket will prompt die-hard supporters in the Great Salt Lake area to contact McCain HQs in Nevada, New Mexico, and Colorado. Those states, among others, could use all of the help they can get <

Yes, and Michigan is the big prize. The race is now extremely close in the Motor State, and if Romney could add just one or two percentage points to McCain’s vote there, it could swing the state and thereby swing the Electoral College.

Mitt is a great pick.

Mr first choice is Palin, but Romney is better than any of the others after Palin.

He brings Mich and bring business acumen since he walks the walk and has run business.

I do not know what that means...

We were not told..

They were asked but no explanation

RomneyBots are not known for sane comments anyway...

“Romney is more conservative than REAL conservatives...”

“Romney is more pro-life than REAL pro-lifers”

Earthdweller, Mr. Bates is someone who started a McCain list. He is a true gentlemen and a class-act. He just happens to be interested in McCain's VP pick (like all of us). He has NEVER used his McCain list on any type of Romney thread — he's joined in individually with his opinion like everyone else here at FR. I must say, I'm glad I have gotten to know Mr. Bates here.

It’s a kooky post.

Kinda of like a the same posts which say that Mormons are going to convert the entire USA if Romney is elected. LOL.

It’s an open forum and the kooks post just like everyone else.

“Romney has electoral vote potential in the marginal blue states absolutely necessary if Virginia is at risk — and of all the talked of VP possibilities, he’s about the only one who does beyond Pawlenty, and Minnesota can’t undo the possible loss of Colorado and Nevada. Romney can.”

Excellent analysis, Owen. I agree with you whole-heartedly. I worked for my County GOP on Nevada’s Caucus election day (was a ballot counting supervisor and precinct captain). I saw how decisively Mitt Romney won Nevada. I am one of MANY grassroots conservative political activists who will hit the ground running volunteering for a McCain/Romney ticket and give as much $$ as possible to the RNC Victory War Chest in order to ensure a McCain/Romney landslide. To me it truly has become a VEEP thing.

With Romney on the ticket, I will work my tail off for the RNC. Without him on the ticket, I will hold my nose and only show up to vote AGAINST Obama on Election Day.

(Here’s hoping I get to work my tail off these next 75 or so days until Election Day!!!)
