See my sig. Christine O'Donnell would be perfect.

Hahaha, seriously? Christine O'Donnell, the "I am not a witch" candidate? She'd be mocked to high heaven and her social conservatism isn't as useful in that circumstance as a more "standard" conservative would be.
I, for one, would love to see Romney pick O'Donnell as his VP (or maybe Donald Trump).

John Kerry lost an election because of accusations of hypocrisy that were arguably not true. What makes you think that accusing a Massachusetts politician of hypocrisy that manifestly is in fact a thing would go any better for the target?
Mitt Romney hasn't flipped on national health care at all (he implemented a state plan)
Which is a distinction most Americans won't notice.

Mitt Romney also appears to be pretty incoherent/out-of-touch.

My take: The ticket needs a safe choice with humble Midwestern roots in order to help penetrate Ohio, Michigan, Wisconsin, Iowa and perhaps Minnesota. That leaves five candidates: Portman, Daniels, Ryan, Thune and Pawlenty.
[...]
Since when is Paul Ryan a "safe" pick?
