If he doesn’t get the nod, he is VP for sure!
P.S. Dont nominate Romney.
You got that right. If there's one candidate who could de-energize the TEA party base (you know, the ones who just elected us a Republican House with a 60+ seat gain), it's Mitt Romney.
Romney would virtually guarantee an Obama win.
And even if Obama lost, we'd be stuck with a liberal RINO, many of whose policies would be indistinguishable from Obama's own (see Romneycare).
