Ryan would be a great choice! But really, the bench is pretty dang strong this time around. Rubio was my favorite, but Ryan would definitely work.

I am fired up for Romney-Ryan! Time to fire Obama!

YAAAAAAWN.

Yep. 80% of America will still be asleep at 8:00 on Saturday morning. Are they trying to avoid publicity?

<> ************************************************************** I wouldn't let that be the determining criteria for the VP pick. The Oba-mao machine is going to try to make whoever Romney picks out to be a heartless serial killer who wants to kill old people.

aboard the USS Wisconsin in Norfolk— guess that’s a big hint.

They are trying to be too damn cute.

Considering the Dems are riunning Lenny and Squiggy, Obama and Biden should appear too.

The only VP announcement coming from Romney that would excite me about his so-called campaign would be for him to say that HE will be the VP with Palin or Santorum at the top of the ticket.

Oh yeah... could be McDonnell too.

I hope it’s Ryan though.

It could also very well be a surprise pick out of left field whom no one is thinking. This happens more often than not. After all, who accurately predicted John McCain picking Sarah Palin for VP four years ago?

I'm hoping and praying for Ryan since Romney's private plane was spotted in Paul's hometown in WI tonight!

I want Christie. Not because I like his politics, but because he’ll shove every Obama lie right back up his a$$...

Eyan is a fine young man. Even if romney loses, which he is doing— it finally sets up a conservative in our future and not a socialist rino.

Even if it isn’t Ryan, all is not lost. I think Paul Ryan would be a perfect fit for Treasury Secretary!

The article touts that the Romney campaign is in such big trouble. It’s the media meme.

Yeah I noticed that, trying to give the impression that Romney is losing. Yet Rasmussen has Romney up by 4, and Gallup has it tied. The Obamedia knows 0 is in trouble. Hoping to manufacture momentum to get the jug eared emperor across the finish line.

In case that post made no sense, Lenny and Squiggy were stupid, foolish characters from Milwaukee. I consider them akin to Obama and Biden. A couple of doofuses.

I agree - Allen West would be fan-freekin-tastic.
