[John W]

Thought we needed this.

[RoseofTexas]

There you go, I’m listening on NBC and already they are hitting on Romney’s gaffe introducing Ryan as president...OH BOY! Biggest day and Romney fudged it. This is going to be the topic and not the selection of Ryan...I HATE EVIL mediaWHORES from HELL with a passion!! HATE’M!!

[taildragger]

I would say that Obama will become totally unhinged by the choice of Ryan, if he weren’t already unhinged. He hates Ryan with a hot, burning, flaming hate, because Ryan is every good thing that Obama is not.

A Meltdown would cause a death spiral for their campaign, and like I have predicted set the Dem's back for 20 years, which I think this "pick" will do anyhow.

Go boldly, I think we have a blowout in the making...

[PghBaldy]

That’s because Mitt announced Ryan as the next President of the US (which he then amended by interrupting Ryan).

[mnehring]

Biden's reaction.

[nfldgirl]

You’re wrong! Get over it! Now, stop the fretting!

[MEG33]

Happy Happy Happy!

[McGruff]

Not quite the level of a Sarah Palin speech but he didn't out do his running mate. A nuts a bolts kind of guy. Which is the right guy for the right job.

[Crawdad]

This is why Biden has been on vacation for two weeks. They didn’t want him saying something stupid so close to this announcement.

[Miss Didi]

Can you picture the convention stage with the pretty wives, handsome Romney boys, and all those precious children—fabulous!

[exit82]

Ryan’s family on stage now.

We have our marching orders-framed by Ryan-we can get this done.

for our kids, our grand kids, our country, our posterity-—we need to defeat
Obama and his corrupt Administration

I can understand folks here not wanting to vote for Romney, but I can’t understand not voting for Paul Ryan, especially when the choice is the final destruction of America and our families versus a chance at fixing the problem.

[Taffini]

Freerepublic should have a “like”

[teletech]

Romney-Ryan? Hmmmm.......

RandR

As in.....

The original RR....Ronald Reagan.

The county NEEDS a little R and R!

[AFPhys]

Well - I am a bit surprised...

The CBS radio analysts are rather favorably impressed with the choice of Ryan, despite the potential for WH’s and Dems attacks on him.

[sneakers]

Ryan’s words brought me to tears

Me too. When he said our rights come from nature and God and not government, I teared up and started cheering! I think I just got some hope back. Romney chose VERY wisely.

[Artcore]

Oh please! Rubio is cut from the same cloth as McConnel, Graham and other GOP-es! I guess it's his pro-Amnesty position that you feels makes Rubio such a brilliant choice?

Sorry, but Rubio was way over-hyped. Ryan was the superior choice.

[Doofer]

+1

[CaptainK]

A Rubio nomination would have put the focus of the campaign on illegal immigration.

[penelopesire]

That’s it! Just woke up. Watched a lot of the middle of night coverage and the left wing media was in full meltdown trying to spin the news. I did notice that the women media clowns do have a bit of a crush on him though.

Bottom line...Obama’s lead with women voters just went up in smoke!

[tndarlin]

Sorry Kid Rock
