“But instead they got Malcolm X.”
Ain’t that the truth! (clap, clap, clap)
“Under this scenario, Romney can easily win. The difference between simply winning, and a 48 state blowout is enthusiasm, and a very large part of that depends on who he picks for VP, and if he does an aggressive campaign after the convention.”
I respectfully disagree. The enthusiasm on our side is for defeating Obama. Most conservatives see Romney as merely the vehicle for getting there. His VP pick is therefore a win/break even situation. Romney CAN pick up SOME points with a particular VP pick, but short of picking McCain as his VP he really has a free throw here. The enthusiasm will continue to grow on our side as the list of impressive and important Ted Cruz-like primary wins pile up.
Romney is stuck at dead center. This might move the talk needle: I think that Romney should SEAL his Federal and State Tax Records when he announces who his Veep will be.
That would give The Media a double surprise.
