IF, Romney were to get the nomination. His VP would be Rand Paul, especially if Romney needs the Paul delegates at the convention. Why else other than his legacy to go on with Rand as the VP would the Paul campaign and his Pac have spent so much time and money attacking those who were only a threat to Romney? The deal would also include Ron not running as a 3rd party candidate. Rand even lied to get on Hannity’s radio show so he could lie about and denigrate Newt. He would certainly meet Romney’s critera for VP as Kentucky is far enough South and he is perceived to be a Tea Party candidate and to be Conservative and he is also a liar and unprincipled.
I think Romney would probably want Rubio, who all but endorsed him in the Florida primary and, to top it off, has a Mormon background. Somehow after Rubio’s family arrived here, they ended up in a Mormon hall or ward or whatever, and he was brought up as a Mormon.
The family left the Mormons at some point - supposedly now Rubio is a Catholic, but I have read that he actually goes to a “non-denominational” church in South Florida. However, he’s popular among the Cubans (and devastated Gingrich’s campaign here by attacking Gingrich and supporting Romney) and he’s an excellent speaker.
But I no longer trust him. Anybody who would support Romney, especially in such a way that he had “deniability,” doesn’t get my vote.
In any case, I don’t care who Mittens picks for VP. I’m not voting for VP again.
