He really has bailed on Romney. The stench must be getting bad.

Hedging his bets must be a way of life for him. That's why I think he's a conman. It's the way they think of always being in a win-win situation.

As did Joe Lieberman in 2000. I think it depends on the state if you can run simultaneously like that.

But it's a good thing he did decide to run for the Congressional seat too. I doubt he will become VP. Poor Damien (my nickname for Ryan-he looks like the kid from The Omen.)
