I heard some Fox business reporter on a radio talk show the other day. He was promoting a Romney/Rubio ticket. He claimed Romney would appeal to the business community and “moderate” Republicans. Rubio would draw libertarians and Tea Party people. His caveat was Romney had alot of ‘splainin’ to do about Romneycare. He said so far, Mitt’s only defense has been that Obama should have seen how bad it was and dumped Obamacare, and that’s not cutting it.
I personally think that Mitt is out of the question for reasons that can’t be “balanced” by having a genuine conservative as V.P. (I just don’t trust Mitt Romney to oppose big government and crony capitalism, nor do I trust him to defend the United States.) I like Marco Rubio so far but he needs to prove himself. Let him be Senator for a term or two and then Governor of Florida for a term or two and then maybe he will be ready for the White House.
