Questions and Answers About The Romney/Ryan Ticket:

1) Does this mean Mitt Romney is adopting the Paul Ryan plan?

· Gov. Romney applauds Paul Ryan for going in the right direction with his budget, and as president he will be putting together his own plan for cutting the deficit and putting the budget on a path to balance.

· Romney’s administration will go through the budget line by line and ask two questions: Can we afford it? And, if not, should we borrow money from China to pay for it?

· Mitt Romney will start with the easiest cut of all: Obamacare, a trillion-dollar entitlement we don’t want and can’t afford.

· Mitt Romney also laid out commonsense reforms that will make good on our promises to today’s seniors and save Social Security and Medicare for future generations.

2) Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan have different views on some policy areas – like Medicare spending, entitlement reform, labor, etc. – do you think those differences are going to hurt or help?

· Of course they aren’t going to have the same view on every issue. But they both share the view that this election is a choice about two fundamentally different paths for this country. President Obama has taken America down a path of debt and decline. Romney and Ryan believe in a path for America that leads to more jobs, less debt and smaller government. So, while you might find an issue or two where they might not agree, they are in complete agreement on the direction that they want to lead America

1. Good - they are already on the defensive over the ryan budget.

Starting off back on your heels is not a good way to fight.

2. And who provided these answers? A "Republican source"

who dare not speak his name. We don't even know if this source is a member of the Romney campaign!

4. They won't go after him the way they attacked Harry

WiLLIARd can't go after the Ryan plan because he supported it.
This will be fun

5. Well, this might be a clue as to who the source is connected to

“We are not auditioning for fearless leader,” Grover Norquist told conservatives at the CPAC convention in February. “We don’t need a president to tell us in what direction to go. We know what direction to go. We want the Ryan budget...We just need a president to sign this stuff...Pick a Republican with enough working digits to handle a pen..."

“The clamor you are hearing for Paul Ryan for VP is not about helping the Romney candidacy,” wrote conservative writer and former George W. Bush aide David Frum. “It’s about controlling the Romney campaign—and ultimately the Romney presidency. It’s about forcing a platform on Romney, and then dictating the agenda...If (Romney) accedes, it’s a big surrender of control—and a surrender to many of those who most opposed (and who inwardly continue to dislike) his nomination.”

...Those are the marching orders, and thus far they’ve controlled Romney’s campaign...

For this remake of the Bush regime, the roles of Cheney and Rove will be played by Norquist and Ryan. Like Bush II, Mitt will merely be a figurehead.

6. Looks that way

The job for the Rmoney goons is to muddy the waters and fool the sheeple.
They really think people are stupid.
