Ricky is open to being Mitten's running mate

[WI_DEM]

"Of course. I mean, look. I would do in this race as I always say, this is the most important race in our country's history. I'm going to do everything I can. I'm doing everything I can. I'm out there. In the last 10 months, I've had five days off. Two for Thanksgiving, and three for Christmas. I've been working every single day. My wife and my kids, we're just busting our tail, because we know their future and all of our childrens' future is at stake in this election and I don't want to be the guy who has to sit with my granddaughter, 20 years from now, and tell stories about an America where people once were free. I don’t want to have that conversation."

1. Witnesses report 'riotous laughter' coming from Romney headquarters n/t

[SamG]

2. Rick Santorum, Sarah Palin, Rick Perry, Michele Bachman

The choices are so hard for a man like Rmoney to make:

Hardest fork in choices among those:
male or female?

[IcyPeas]

3. it could work for them

Romney has been picking up most votes and delegates except by evangelicals. santorum has been winning all those votes. if they combined their winnings it could put them ahead. don't laugh.

[RZM]

4. He could get those with somebody else who has less baggage

Ricky's political sun has just about set.

[Zambero]

5. Yes, with Ricky in tow Romney could kiss off PA

and every other potential swing state that comes to mind.

[sinkingfeeling]

6. Why would he want to run as veep to the 'worst Republican'? Could it be

that Ricky will take anything to be in public view?

[IcyPeas]

7. who's better marco rubio or santorum?

either would be a nightmare scenario. one increases the Hispanic vote the other the evangelicals.

either would help mittens

[IndyJones]

8. A pineapple.

[onethatcares]

9. this mornings Tampa Bay Times

has Rubio keeping the possibility open.

[spanone]

10. the prospect of those two winning the general election is one scary scenario

won't. happen.

[DCBob]

11. Ha! fat chance.

get real Ricky.

[BlueDemKev]

12. How nice! Two Snobs on the Same Ticket!

[SammyWinstonJack]

13. He's an idiot, straight up.

[Aerows]

14. Romney can't win

Because he can't win the South. My family members are saying that they will write in a candidate before they will vote for him.

If you ask a Southern conservative whether they would like to vote for Romney, or get run over by a tractor, they are going to choose "run over by a tractor".

Santorum being the VP choice won't do anything, because they just don't like Romney. Look at the polls. Texas is going to be another place where he loses, and I already predicted way ahead of time that Romney would lose Louisiana.
