When I first read the headline, I thought they were going to make the case that Rep. Ryan would be "another Dick "Darth Cheney" Cheney" or the power behind the throne, as the left always claimed when Dubya was in office. Digging deeper, I see that they're trying to sow doubt in his fitness for the office of vice president, even when the alternative is Clueless Joe.

It is a fair question (one I answer with yes, I would trust him to do a better job than any of the other three major party candidates). Have they asked the same about Biden?

Yes - have they put Biden to this same level scrutiny, or even Obama himself? Compared to either of them Ryan has a much better resume' and record - certainly compared to Obama.

Sarah Palin worked her way up from PTA mom to governor of our largest state and look what they did to her. Dan Quayle spelled that word correctly and look what they did to him. John Edwards is a phony, an ambulance chaser and cheated on his dying wife and they still don’t like to talk about him. Al Gore is ... well, Al Gore, but you hardly hear criticism of him. Henry Wallace was a known communist, but you won’t read about it in a history textbook, or most anywhere else...

No, the far better question is “can Obama run the country?”

Sure, since January, 2009, Obozo and that cast of Marxist retards he brought with him (or vice versa) have been running the country — RIGHT INTO THE GROUND!!!
To: 2ndDivisionVet
Better question...Could running mate Ryan run the country as well as Obama? Answer: Hell yes.

Bravo! These people make me sick to my stomach. Just look at the buffoon we now have as vice president. Maybe this author should substitute Ryan’s name with Biden in key places. Then read it - and the answer is an astounding NO. Further, substitute obama’s name there, and the answer is still a resounding NO!
I am so fed up with this crapola and the media that I have to carry a barf bag with me when I read or hear these spins meisters and their crapola.

Paul Ryan could run this country far better than that interminable jackass Plugs Biden.

And what in the world could Joe Biden run, except his mouth? No media outlet asked that burning question in ‘08 when he was selected to run with the First Dictator. Were he ever elevated to the presidency, Biden would probably start WWIII by playing with the red phone.
To: Ingtar
This is a sign of the utter desperation and blindness among liberals and nothing more.

There we have it. The reason McCain lost was because he chose a VP deemed unworthy of running the country if he died.
