Well, suppose either Mitt or Rudy win the nomination and then pick Mike as VP??? Personally, that would be a pretty strong ticket. This constant picking at our candidates fails to take into consideration the absolute horror, of the Hildabeast winning with huge down ticket pick ups for the socialist pacifist Dems in ‘08. Please stop the conspiracy thinking. No Dem is better than any of our top 5 tier candidates for the WH. When the Gop voters finally understand this, we will actually beat Her Highness. Our guy has to win a national election. Remember? He has to get 273 electoral votes from somewhere.
There is no way I will ever vote for Rudy or Mitt. I will go third party if they are on the ticket.
OK, great point. You've just changed my mind.
I'm excited, let me go grab my f'ing checkbook and clear my calendar for all the blogging and volunteering and letter writing.
Let me translate this for you in pictures......
Romney gains nothing from Huckabee. Romney’s already “acceptable” to the evangelicals, and if he needs a southernor to help out he’d be better off with Fred Thompson, or someone else.
Rudy might pick Huckabee for the “social conservative” help, but I don’t think it would help much, and otherwise they are exact opposites who shouldn’t get along well and I’d rather have a VP that isn’t exactly opposite the President.
Rudy would be better off picking Duncan Hunter as VP, they have more in common and it might just get the conservatives back.
