I’ve already read this article and it’s stupid. The senate could only choose from the list of people submitted to the congress by the electoral college. It can’t just choose whoever it wants.

You know, this has been brought up other times, and it just isn’t going to happen. So, no worries.

“The person having the greatest number of votes as Vice-President, shall be the Vice-President, if such number be a majority of the whole number of Electors appointed, and if no person have a majority, then from the two highest numbers on the list, the Senate shall choose the Vice-President” - 12th Amendment

Nonsense! Ridiculous mental masturbation.

Your suggestion is giving me indigestion so early in the morning, and I haven’t even had breakfast yet!

Hillary will become VP.

It was the whole idea all along, the election is rigged to be a tie.

[freekitty]

BS

If Biden was selected as VP in a Romney administration he would simply freeze him out of everything and make him a ceremonial ribbon cutter.

It WOULD be wonderful to watch Romney torment Reid for four years...

[E. Pluribus Unum]

Who cares?

The VP has as much or as little power as the President gives him.

Case closed.

This article is the "Hey Father" Routine that George Carlin used to do about eating a Hamburg @ 11:59 pm as you cross the International Dateline during Lent and the Ship goes down and do you go to Hell, Of the Constitution....

Paahhhlleaassse what a waiste of bandwidth....

No officeholder would get anywhere NEAR Capitol Hill for months on end due to inner city massive riots.

So what? The POTUS just tells him to go solve some unsolvable problem on the African Continent and don't return for four years.

[TornadoAlley3]

LOL. Obama will get 253 electoral votes.

[chainsaw]

Could Harry Reid Become VP Under Romney?

That will never happen. It’s going to be a blow out for Romney/Ryan.

Congress will still need to grow some balls, to stop the Kenyans Executive order rampage, between the election and packing time.

Hopefully all of “O’s” Executive orders will be reversed by Romney on Jan. 21. All 953 of them.

Technically possible. Just like it’s technically possible that you could have different people win the popular and electoral vote. But there’s only ever been three presidents that won the electoral vote without a popular-vote lead, Hayes, Benjamin Harrison and Dubya. There’s only been two presidents that got elected by the House, Jefferson and John Quincy Adams, and Adams is the only one under the current law, the Twelfth Amendment. And there’s only one vice president that got elected by the Senate, Richard Johnson, Martin Van Buren’s running mate in 1836. So technically possible, but very, very rare. If you’re really that worried about it, get out and help win.
