“I am in favor of Rubio”

me too:

1. He’s brilliant. Maybe the smartest guy in the Senate.

2. Extremely articulate; very, very fast on his feet. Would be a formidable campaigner and debater.

3. Young and energetic.

4. Conservative.

5. Drop dead gorgeous (and believe me, this DOES make a favorable impression on quite a few of the ladies.)

6. Of Cuban Hispanic descent and from Florida. (Romney really needs some geographic and/or ethnic/gender balance for his ticket.)

A VP candidate like Rubio would tie the Commie Stream Press in knots. And I think a pick like Rubio would generate significant buzz and would be seen as a bit out of the box (but not too far out of the box). It would signal that Romney is capable of shaking things up a bit. Not to mention the beneficial effects regarding Florida’s EVs. Plus I think it would get the Hispanic community paying a bit more attention to the election and Romney, and in a good way at that. And finally, I think Rubio would present a very serious headache to the Obama campaign, in more ways than one.

You forgot to mention “Supports Amnesty.” Or is that supposed to be part of the “Hispanic community” appeal?
