To anyone refusing to vote for mittens (i.e., against Obama) .....
What would it take for you to support the ticket? Who would have to be VP? Anyone particular?
I actually have had a change of heart and will vote for Romney after saying for a year I would not. I am really voting anyone but 0bama.
I would like to see West/Palin/Bachmann/Cain for VP. I don’t like Santorum or Gingrich either.
Allen West?

A different/conservative candidate. This is a (clearing throat) conservative web-site.
Dump Romney.
For me, no ticket with Romney on it can be rescued by any clever choice of VP. Between the magic underwear and the scorched earth campaigning and the leftist realities of a Romney regime as experienced by the good people of MA, there is no candidate whose goodness could offset the evil in that package. Yes, I’m saying it. Even if Sarah was his running mate, I would not vote for him. A vote for Romney is a vote for the death of Republican conservatism, and I will have no part in that.
As long as Romney is on the ticket, I will NOT be supporting.
What would it take?
1. Romney on his knees, nattily attired in sackcloth and ashes, doing profound and painful physical penance, credibly pleading that he has renounced each and every execrable crime against social conservatism from his support of mass baby-killing, and perversion posing as "marriage" and gun grabbing, and hiking taxes on Americans of modest means to shift the taxes of the elites onto their backs, believably renouncing any respect for or connection to the similar execrable evils of his late father, cashing in his corporate raider bloated estate and dividing the proceeds among the following groups in the following proportions: 1/4 each to Free Republic, Gun Owners of America, American Life League and to Eagle Forum's efforts to defend marriage as only exemplified by a committed relationship of one man and one woman (no others and no household pets, wild non-human animals or space aliens as "parties" to the "marriage.").
2. Naming Sarah Palin for VP nominee at the convention and seeing to her nomination.
3. Once she is nominated and would succeed to the POTUS nomination on the occurrence of any vacancy, frankly recognize that Romney has no intention of doing anything after the word "credibly" in numbered paragraph 1 and make an honest man of himself for the first time in his adult life, resign the POTUS nomination, turn over the remaining mountain of special interest money to Palin's campaign or to any reliable campaign committee(s) consistent with law as Palin may designate, prove his executive capability by raising for her campaign more money than Obama raises (but with no strings attached, no promises made to the contributors whatsoever).
4. After the 50-state sweep, including the election of governors like Mike Pence of Indiana and others like him, enhanced majorities in the House (determined to dump to the back benches Boehner/Cantor/McCarthy and their ilk with principled conservative replacements), control of 60+ seats in the US Senate, appointment of a cabinet including a first rate prosecutor as Attorney General to indict, convict and incarcerate for as long as possible the perpetrators and enablers of the Obozo/Biden regime, the Pelosi Reid axis in the Congress and Senate, Eric Holder, the other perps of Fast and Furious, Solyndra, the GM takeover, Obozocare, the death panels, Sebelius and the rest, enjoy the post election party.
5. Then, with dignity, withdraw from public life announcing an intention to spend at least four years in a cloistered monastery (even as a non-Catholic) strictly obeying a rule of personal silence with or without his wife as they mutually see fit, to ponder and meditate upon the shamefulness and sinfulness of the sort of campaign of slander and libel and vicious twisting of records and facts that characterized his entire campaign against each and every actual Republican patriot in the race.
6. Obtain the commitment of his sons to guarantee his (and Anne's if she joins him) expenses of cloistered living and the similar expenses of each of his campaign managers, advertising (propaganda) meisters, state chairs, campaign employees, "inevitability babblers," Ann Coulter, Karl Rove, Congressional and other endorsers, and particularly John Boehner, Eric Cantor, Kevin McCarthy, Adam Kinzinger, Aaron Schock, Nancyboy Kirk, Dennis Hastert, Mitch McConnell, Lamar Alexander, Robert Corker, Charles Crist, Chris "Krispy Kreme" Christy, Lindsay Graham, Obozo (if not incarcerated, Moochelle, the Maine Spineless sisters, etc., etc., etc., ad infinitum, ad nauseam (separate monasteries and convents for each and every one).
7. It is not that much to ask after Romney's behavior of the last year alone and would begin, in a small way, to establish what he might of a positive reputation before the inevitable demise facing each of us of a certain age.
