Paul Ryan is Mitt's VP

[slow99]

Fuck yes.

[Vertnut]

Good job mitt you just gave Obama a second term.

Don't keep us in suspense. Please explain.

[line-em-up]

Don't keep us in suspense. Please explain.

The left leaning libs see Ryan as a nutjob, racist teabagger that wants to take their entitlements away. I've heard Paul Ryan talk on the radio and he sounds very intelligent. However, I sill get his name and Rand Paul's mixed up. I wouldn't mind have either of them in charge.

If he picks Paul Ryan it is proof that the (R) didn't learn anything from the last election. It's not how happy your base is it's how many voters you have. Ryan may make the hardcore teaparty Republican happy but that guy was gonna vote for Romney anyway. And he will lose the independents and make the moderate Republicans stay home.

You do realize that he had/has several democrats (particularly from the midwest and northwest) that agree with his budget? It's not about base at all. That's why Romney steeped out on this. Ryan is one of the few that can go to Florida and actually present and explain the case FOR Medicare to the elderly, and show how to reform it for my generation.

You're going against a lot of the pundits on TV, so Who would you have chosen?

Still don't like Romney, but this goes a long way in earning respect.

agreed

His budget wouldn't affect you anyway -- that's the liberal spin. Those 55 and older are grandfathered
(lmao) into the old system.

[jewozzy]

I have a strong feeling he will be replaced. Obama knows he is fucked. I see him putting Hillary in the game. You see how Bill has been stumping for O? I see that as a sign.

I mean, come on, are you gonna risk your reelection on trusting Biden can handle his own against this?

i know some people on her security detail and they say her farewell tour of the world this year is legit. said shes out of the game after this...

Not there yet by several years. I know it's "liberal spin". Taking shots at me doesn't really add to this discussion. Maybe check out the "sports" forum?

You mean the last election where the Republicans took the House and gained more seats in the government than any party has in history?

He may be alluding to the '08 campaign with McCain. Nobody with an (R) in front of their name was going to win that year.

He listens to the msm and their narrative that senior hate ryan.

What he fails to see is that despite pushing grandma off a cliff commercials, that seniors actually preferred ryans plan best. He also has an over 50% approval rating with seniors, as well as a 35% strongly approve out of that.

Seniors know that ryans plan is the only plan to protect their benefits in the long term.they arent as stupid and easily confused as democrats would have ypu believe.

And here he takes down the tax the rich argument, in 90 seconds



The perfect vp pick, in my honest opinion.
