I do hope that the Jewish vote swings heavily against Obama. He’s the most anti-Jewish and anti-Israel President since Jimmy Carter. Would choosing a good running mate help Romney with them?
Perhaps Mitt will follow the democrat pattern and select his VP as impeachment insurance, i.e. the weakest, most ineffectual, dumbest member of his party available. Boehner, maybe?
Romney will benefit from a good VP choice, yes. Any candidate does. I personally think he needs to emphasize bho’s economic disaster along with his anti-American foreign policy fiascos. Still and all, millions of people of all political persuasions will vote for almost anyone ti be rid of a man who patently isn’t eligible for, or up to, the job. (Yet there’s lots of risk yet. He can try to buy more votes with our tax money and there’s always an “October surprise.”
