Quoted:
No VP choice can wash the stench of fail from Romney.
He reminds of so much of McCain in '08.
The centrist nominee with a Christian veep is a good ticket.
You have to assume you have the base and try to nail the middle. "Conservatives," which I'm really starting to view as a dirty word, are not attracting the middle unless they make the economy their focus. Unfortunately, they have to earn their Conservative stripes by seeing who can save the most babies or tighten the noose around enough queers.
The middle wins elections and Romney is appealing to the middle. He needs a veep that will whip the American Taliban into the voting booths and we're fine. Palin did exactly that and if there was anyone but McCain/Palin, we would have seen a HUGE spread when the votes rolled in. We got whipped, but we didn't get slaughtered.
I think a massive PR stunt before election day would be for Romney to give an interview and slip in a quick jab about legalizing pot. Half the youngsters in the country would know about it with the polls only days away.
