Rep. Marsha Blackburn (TN), a wonderful and attractive, well-spoken conservative (who had backed Thompson) is now backing Romney. She would be a SUPERB VP, but I doubt that McCain picking her would help bring conservatives to vote for him. She WOULD, however, he a WONDERFUL choice for Romney shoudl he somehow perform a political miracle.
Yup. Marsha used to be my Congresswoman until they gerry-mandered me out of her district. Good thing. She got off with a stern e-mail and perhaps a conversation when I next see her. I’d have had to be more adamant about things if she were still my Rep. I expect things like endorsing Romney out of a Democrat, not a Republican. She’s fallen for the “stop Hillary, stop McCain” at the cost of electing a Liberal gambit. She’s better than that.
