Romney is an idiot if he does not pick West as his running mate.

And not because he's black.

Romney will absolutely not pick West as veep running mate. Too outspoken and may offend “moderates” (this in Romney’s view).

In a good and decent world you would be absolutely right but, alas, we live in a world in which Col. West is about to be pilloried as a McCarthyite to the point where he will be lucky if he's not shunned by his colleagues as radioactive.

The best thing Allen West would bring to any ticket is national defense gravitas. He’d make Dick Cheney look like a pussy cat.

You could have put a period after “idiot.”
