You are not being fair. If asked, any of the candidates would serve as vice-president. It is called serving your country. Romney would serve as vice president if things played out that way. As Americans, they are patriotically obligated to serve their country when asked.
Not that I’m disagreeing with you - I agree.
I wish Santorum, rather though had gone off on the question the way he did against the NYT reporter.
Something like; “I’M IN A CAMPAIGN WHAT SORT OF DUMB QUESTION IS THAT RIGHT NOW!!” That would have worked.
My .02
I haven’t forgotten that literally EVERY candidate was accused of jockeying for Romney’s VP slot. Now both Santorum and Gingrich both say they would accept a VP slot. Personally I don’t think it will help Romney because he’s a disaster.
Frankly I find the whole thing childish and pathetic (and most likely driven by the Romney camp)
More like serving the evil empire the way things are going. If I were younger, healthier and richer I’d be actively out looking for a country to serve. Not this one.
