Latest Romney campaign leaks on VP search: they want a "boring white guy"

[Lambsbread]

I don't know how many times I have to say it but...

PAUL RYAN

PAUL RYAN

not boring enough.

Boring = no controversial opinions, doesn't have a big name, not really outspoken about anything, doesn't deviate from party ideology, but also isn't an extremist.

John Thune then? He could appeal to the Christian Conservative base, but Paul Ryan is from a swing state that will be absolutely crucial for the GOP in 2012--it's the state that, in my opinion, will make or break the Romney campaign come November.

PAUL RYAN

A man with two first names....I don't trust him.

Ron Paul?

[Lambsbread]

John Thune best fits the description they're looking for, but I really, really, REALLY wanna see Paul Ryan get it.

[Lambsbread]

It's going to be either Jamie Dimon or Samuel Alito.

LOL

[Lambsbread]

what about ron paul?

lol

Jake loves Paul Ryan now?

*dying*

I think it is an act.

Yeah, pretty obviously trying to get votes in Atlasia (wrong way to go about it anyway).

You know, it's pretty disheartening to read this. It really is. I can understand not liking my views, or even thinking lesser of me for them, but don't you dare tell me that I'm "putting on an act for Atlasia." That's a flat-out lie and I won't tolerate it. My views changed, just not in the way that all of you red avatars would've liked to see. Boo-freaking-hoo. Get off your high horse and accept the fact that there are people of other ideologies on this forum and in the world. I shouldn't have to feel bad for logging onto this forum, thinking I'm going to be ridiculed for something I said. I should be able to post my genuine beliefs (which are still evolving) somewhere and not fear that I'm going to be beat down by a storm of red avatars. The only times I've ever discussed my views on fiscal policy, I've been smacked down. I've respectfully disagreed with people, but nobody respectfully disagrees with me. It's always I'm wrong. It's just like in RL! I come to this place cuz I feel like people genuinely liked me. I guess I was wrong. Again. Do you guys know what it's like to be wrong 24/7? Do you know what it's like to have to fear having a goddamn opinion about something because I know someone will ridicule me for it? BS. I'm done. I've f**king had it.

The only problem with Daniels is that he was Bush's budget director from 2001-2003.

Now, Daniels could argue that the economy thrived during this period, silencing some of his critics. However, he would indeed be a great pick.

[Lambsbread]

So as of today, I'm gonna say my favourite potential pick is Daniels, but I'm gonna go out on a limb and say Christie will be the pick.

Michelle Obama didn't want her husband to run for President, and look what happened.

She wasn't the only one.
