Probably cost him Florida to boot.

Do you assume this because of all the old people in FL who might be worried about their Medicare and Social Security? You might be surprised that Marco Rubio has taken a stand similar to Paul Ryan regarding both those programs, and has received tremendous support from the old folks in the state. Rubio apparently took the time to explain the ideas, and they made sense to the old folks, especially when it became clear to them that THEIR situations were not going to change.

If Paul Ryan makes this position clear to older voters in the rest of the country, I believe many will see the wisdom in NOT voting for Obama or any of the other Democrats, this time around.

I am not assuming anything.

I know that the God on the White Horse Horse from Utah has given up on the hispanic and black vote by picking another rich white guy.

Not too bright, but old mormon prejudice dies hard.

He has however surrounded himself with all kinds of lisping fags on his campaign staff, so I guess he still has shot at the homo vote.

....look at Ryan’s standing among seniors. Despite the attacks on Ryan over his budget plan, he’s easily the most liked of the short-listers among likely voters 65 years of age and over, with a 52/29 favorability rating. His “very favorable” rating of 31% in the 65+ group is more than 10 points better than the other shortlisters in the Rasmussen survey
