I submit COL Allen West.
Surprise: Romney wins in a landslide.
I like West- he would likely help with the FL vote. He would possibly help bring some black voters, and he would be a bold choice. The exact same could also be said for Rubio, by changing the word black to latino. I also like Rubio, but I love Ryan. The downside in choosing Ryan would be his loss to the House, where he is one of the best we have. But Romney will likely go with a “safer” choice, Portman or Pawlenty, or maybe totally surprise everyone. He is almost certain to disappoint conservatives.
