Even if Romney/Paul haven’t colluded and it looks like they have, Paul probably thought Romney would be the leader and wouldn’t attack him in hopes of being VP.
If they have colluded, then Paul might have a promise of VP.
And it would be interesting to know if such a deal existed and whether Romney actually honors the deal.
But I don’t think Paul as VP would help Romney’s ticket. Paul might bring some pothead votes that would otherwise go to Obama, but he would probably lose just as many votes, as he brought.
We’re being played.
I think Ron is setting it up for Rand as VP if we nominate the liberal, Willard.
And then Rand runs in 2016 for president as a Next in Line/Tea Party guy (after Obama finishes up eight disastrous years.)
It appears you believe the deal is for Rep.Ron Paul to be Romney’s veep; correct?
Actually, the rumor is Sen.Rand Paul would be Romney’s running mate for veep.
At least, that is the rumor.
I think Rush or Levin or one of those implied it might be Rand Paul as VP for the payoff. Makes more sense as Ron would defeat the ticket.
