FT sounds great, but doesn’t have the bonifides to back it up. Mitt/Fred (Fred to keep Mitt on the straight and narrow).

Fred needs to stay in. He has the power to use his wonderful influence if the convention goes brokered.

I would like to see him at the very least be a steadying force as Veep in a Romney admin. The country really needs someone who gets it, like Fred.

Fred has the bonifides. He came in with the Republican revolution and his votes are there on welfare reform and down the line. We don’t needs someone who wants to grow the legistlative morass. Today we had the media playing games with Thompson again. We need to find a way to shut down or disrupt the Push polls coming out of the Huckabee camp. I’m going to start printing out flyers for www.victimsvoice527.com and dropping them off at Church.

“Mitt/Fred (Fred to keep Mitt on the straight and narrow).”

Maybe in terms of getting elected, but VP’s historically have exercised almost no power once they take office over executive policy. The current situation (Cheney) is certainly unprecedented in my lifetime, and in fact I cannot name the last VP who was so active. (Can anyone? I am stumped.)

Nice thought, but Fred didn’t enter the race to be a Veep!

Mitt/Fred

You for Mitt Romney? You might as well ask for a second term for Poppy Bush. They're cut from the same cloth. Say goodbye to the Second Amendment, while you're at it.

They're pushing conservatives to the back of the bus, don't you get it? You'll wind up being their shine boy.
