Thune-Ridge would lose every state McCain did, plus Missouri, Arizona, Montana, and Georgia.
The only winning issue Thune has is being pro-life. Putting a pro-abortionist on the ticket will end that.
I used to think Ridge had a chance at VP, but he really needs a conversion to pro-life if he wants a chance on the ticket. Heck, Dick Cheney was pro-gay marriage and he never talked about it, ever. Ridge can say he supports the Nominee and pro-life. The Christians wouldn't vote for the Democrat anyway.
Also, Senator P. Bush founded Planned Parenthood, yet both GHWB and GWB convinced Christians they were pro-life, go figure!
Well, Dubya and Bush Senior are Pro-Life retard.
True, though GHW Bush only became pro-life in 1980, when Reagan picked him as his running mate.
GHW Bush never really became pro-life, as evidenced by his appointment of David Souter...
He thought Souter and Clarence Thomas were pro-life. He was right about Thomas, wrong about Souter. If you're going to say that, then Reagan never really became pro-life either--he appointed two pro-choice justices.
In response to the question, John Hoeven.
