Can We Assume;Any Combination Of A Perry/Romney/Rubio/Christie Ticket Will Topple Obama?

[Winstons Julia]

I am entirely open to the idea of changing the Constitution so that we discourage the anchor babies. Really. We need to look at it.

Until that’s done, though ... good eligible candidates are good eligible candidates.

[Scanian]

In your dreams.

I’ll bet I have a higher opinion of Rubio than you do. That has nothing to do with it. Either you meet the Founders’ qualifications for the presidency or you don’t. Marco does NOT.

It is not negotiable and only a constitutional amendment would make him so.

Romney is winning everywhere right now. If Perry gets in it, Romney is still winning everywhere except the south. Romney is neck and neck with Obama with a slight edge at this point. The other candidates are behind Obama in most polls at this moment, but I think it’s going to get worse for Obama, not better.

[Force of Truth]

Rubio is eligible to everyone except birthers. And nobody is listening to birthers much these days.

And is on Romney's short list for VP.

[nascarnation]

I’d hold my nose and vote for that combo.

And based on Baraq’s disastrous economic record, it’s a ticket far more likely to win than the similarly flawed McCain/Palin in 08.

[Force of Truth]

It could be worse.

That doesn't fly. I lived in Canada for seven years. I was indeed under the jurisdiction of the Canadian government for some things. But let me you, I was still under the jurisdiction of the United States as I filed US income tax returns and registered for the Selective Service, not to mention holding a US passport.

FAIL.

[buccaneer81]

Who is listening to you, noob?

[Allegra]

Ughh....I shudder at the remotest possibility of Romney getting anywhere near the nomination.

I really don't think he will, though. His record is Massachusetts should be enough to sink him.

[Winstons Julia]

You may say “fail” all you would like.

It’s my belief that Rubio is eligible according to The Constitution.

In my opinion...you fail... so we’ll agree to disagree then?

[buccaneer81]

so we’ll agree to disagree then?

Agreed.

[Winstons Julia]

That’s very agreeable of you.

[Gena Bukin]

Who is listening to you, noob?

Let's put Rubio's name on the ticket and find out. Let's see who's left stomping their feet, sputtering "b-b-but he's not eligible!!!" Why won't anyone listen to us??? O-bots everywhere!!!"

[Gena Bukin]

And is on Romney's short list for VP.

Rubio needs to be on everyone's short list for VP.

Just don’t be surprised if Rubio is selected the MSM and Democrats become born-again “birthers.”

[Liberals_R_BiPolar_Turkeys]

Obama is an illegal alien, and yet the DNC didn’t care, so if Rubio is on the ticket, do you think the left will attack him? go ahead and let them, the Hispanic community will turn against the Democrats if they try to bash Rubio. And hopefully we will have the Dream Ticket of Perry/Rubio. Even Perry/McDonnell sounds terrific.

[Gena Bukin]

Just don’t be surprised if Rubio is selected the MSM and Democrats become born-again “birthers.”

I won't be surprised at all. They'll argue "At least Obama had an American mom!"

[buccaneer81]

I won't be surprised at all. They'll argue "At least Obama had an American mom!"

Exactly.

[Gena Bukin]

so if Rubio is on the ticket, do you think the left will attack him?

Rubio is young, good-looking, articulate, popular in the swing state of Florida and able to effectively communicate a conservative message to the voters. If he throws his hat into the ring, he'll be attacked mercilessly because he is that rare but serious threat to the Democrats; an electable conservative.
