Drudge: "SOURCES: Final names Ryan, Rubio, Pawlenty, Christie, Portman and one unnamed wild card... Developing…"

What a fail of a site. Lack of balls/importance in that statement shows.

I will repeat again: worst-run campaign in last the 20 years, possibly US history.

After putting you on ignore, it's kind of fun to remark just how terrible your posts are.


Pot calling the kettle.

Yeah and it makes it clear to people that Romney wants to steal your Social Security and Medicare rather than fix the economy.

Drudge now says Romney was making calls late tonight to those shortlisters who weren't chosen.

This seems like bizarre timing, and if it's Ryan I will laugh my ass off. Romney's campaign really must sense that they desperately need some buzz and attention if they're going for it now.

I agree Thune would be a great pick.  But he has not figured in the prominently discussed speculation, Portman, Ryan, Pawlenty, Rubio, Jindal.

Or perhaps this has all been carefully orchestrated by the Romney campaign to throw the press and the pundits off track.

If Thune has been thoroughly vetted it would appear to have been under the most confidential circumstances imaginable.

But with Thune, what's not to love?  He has a lot going for him.

What was it the night before Palin was announced? Pawlenty high on intrade?

Romney has done a great job at making it look like it could be Ayotte, McDonnell, Portman, and Pawlenty. Would he screw things up at the end? I mean why would someone fly from Boston to Wisconsin, unless it's another decoy? Shouldn't they fly from DC...I mean, was Myers in Boston until today?

Do these people even understand the Olympics are still going on? LOL

Is Ann's horse still in the Olympics?  If not, then the Olympics are over, plain and simple. Smiley

No, Ann's horse was out of contention as of a couple of days ago, and Ann is now back in the US.

My sources tell me it will be Pamela Geller. The Ryan thing is a diversion.

He's not going to...people are going to be hung over and watching the Olympics tomorrow at 9 AM


The Olympics aren't even on NBC at 9AM tomorrow.   NBC's coverage starts at 10.  Things are winding down.  Most of the popular sports are done.

The plane is there to pick up his son who was sent there to throw off people. It's not Ryan.

Announcing tomorrow means Romney feels the need to change the narrative NOW, despite the fact that the Olympics are still going on.

Looks like it might be a Virginian. Bob McDonnell? Why has no one floated Former Virginia Senator John Warner? He's got foreign policy and legislative experience. And he's popular in a swing state.

He's ancient?

That plane has been in and out of Janesville a number of times this month.  It is owned by a company from a neighboring county that owns another plane that has been in and out of Janesville this month, too.  It might be something, but my guess is that it's a coincidence.  

On the other hand, earlier in the thread, someone noted that Romney had no public appearances today, so he could have evaded the media and gotten on a plane.

I wasn't too familiar with the forum then. As in he predicted it was Palin based on secret flights at night, or said planes had nothing to do with anything?
