I just posted a comment in response to Drudge’s poll: None of the Above.
Every damn one of them is a fake conservative, a RINO in shabby disguise. And at least two of them are not Natural Born Citizens.
He knows that the conservative base wants a conservative, but he is completely unwilling to pick a real conservative—or to step aside and let a real conservative be candidate for POTUS. And the GOPe is entirely with him on this.
Drudge doesn’t know squat. He’s just guessing. His source in the Romney camp (Matt Rhoades) is not involved in the VP selection process. They are just playing with the news media.
