He’s just saw the light.

When? Hours before his single term in MA ended?

I would like to see Romney for VP if only to see the anti-Romney people here on FR blow a gasket.

Oh my!

I can't care much less than I do now. My gasket is safe.

“Bad idea”

Bad idea, indeed - especially in light of what is going on in the “Eldorado” compound in Texas.

And I say this after having voted for Mr. Romney in my state’s primary (by that time, Mr. Thompson and Mr. Tancredo had both dropped out).

This _is not_ the year to try to break ground by having a Mormon candidate on the ticket. Sorry.

Maybe those people are simply pro-conservative; not necessarily anti-Romney?

Romney might bring some of those folks back.

Won't vote for the cult member, sorry, not happening.

Mitt's reply: "What lifelong principles am I supposed to have for this campaign?"

To be fair, Jindal has a pretty impressive resume. But Palin, seriously?

I’m sure it would really help us make the argument that Obama is too inexperienced.

Dude, she just got elected Governor of Alaska. Plus she has a newborn baby. I'm sick of FReepers hyping her and Jindal. When did conservatives support affirmative action?

I like her a lot. Who've you got?

Mike Rounds or Mark Sanford would be good VP picks.

Palin is too green, save her for 2012 she'll have six years under her belt.

McCain has to do something. A lot of folks are very unhappy and will not vote for him. Romney might bring some of those folks back.

I don't think there's much he can do to win over conservatives, not real conservatives. He'll probably do what he can to pull Hillary supporters from Obama, like name another liberal as his running mate.

Would McCain really want to risk keeping the Huckabee set at home on election day by picking a Mormon flip-flopper? Wouldn't it be a good idea to pick someone who will actually mollify the conservative base (not the Fred Barnes types or the handful of Freepers that fell for Romney's marketing scheme)?

I think most real conservatives are already supporting him. He needs a conservative running mate to get us excited enough to actively compaign for or give money to him though.
