I like Ryan. But he is a part of the establishment. He is a go along to get along guy and won’t rock the boat. And VP’s don’t anyway so this is no big deal. Mitt is still just ABO. Big WOOP!

He is a go along to get along guy ...

LOL. You must be kidding. Have you had a look at the Ryan Budget? This is definitely not anything like "go along to get along". This is confrontation with the Dems and the RINOs in the extreme. Time to reset you Paul Ryan Meter.

Sadly you are correct. The VP position has no power other than what the Prez allows. It is primarily a ceremonial position. Picking Ryan was good but it will not "bridge" the gap with the conservative base. The base is not that stupid. And yes, Ryan is a 'go-along to get-along' politician. He won't go against the one who brings him to the dance.
