If those are her true beliefs then I agree she would be an asset to the GOP ticket.

While I agree she is eminently qualified for the veep slot, I don’t see the Republicans running an all Hispanic ticket.

Health Care: Opposes Government-run Health care.

Yet New Mexico took the money and opened a healthcare exchange.

stop thinking "conservative" and start thinking electability....start thinking "antiHitlery"...start thinking taking back the White House, and the supreme court, the lower courts, the FAA,the SEC, the Civil rights commission, the Attorney General's role, etc etc....

we are in the fight of our lives...

our economy is trash..our military is trash...the world is in WW3 but doesn't know it, and we need to kick the rat butt out of OUR house....

ROTFL So Head My Stomach hurts,

at the Dem heads exploding, over the the thought of the GOP having two Hispanic candidates on the ticket, as well as a mixed gender ticket.

Yeah; I’ve thought much about that. I really like the lady, and I think a female on the Ticket would be an asset, but, no way I’d sacrifice Ted Cruz for her to have the VP slot with someone else.

Hey, I am with you 100%..... I am in total agreement with your Post #7. But, I wanted to see how many FReepers would crucify her if she was even considered. I think an Hispanic female on the ticket would be an asset. I’m on your side!

she could lose a few pounds, but probably a good compromise between not alienating the ladies and getting the Laz vote.
