Marsha Blackburn should be Romney’s VP pick.
She is the logical choice if he hopes to win the election. Being a woman, a conservative, a southerner, an evangelical and opposed to Obamacare she is exactly what is needed to compliment the ticket.
Comments please.
 
Yes, I also encourage Romney to pick this very special plum from the whole orchard of religious whackos he has to choose from.

But somehow, I think he's got just enough sense to pick from another variety of fruit -- the Ayn Rand-lovin' type, for instance (Paul Ryan).

Plus she's anti-choice, anti-gay, anti-immigrant and she's somewhat attractive. That worked out so well last time, why not try it again?

ETA:
Two statements rated by Politifact. One false, one mostly false.

Actually the McCain/Palin ticket was ahead in the polls before the economic collapse.
However I never thought Palin was qualified to be VP.
 
I think the Dems and liberals are afraid Romney will pick a woman. They want the first female VP or president to be a Democrat.

And almost as flexible with the truth as Romney. Yep, perfect choice.
Completely unsuited to hold office, but perfect to run against Obama.

Ms. Blackburn is going to praise the ticket? Well, she belongs to the same party; I would expect so.

No. They were briefly and marginally ahead right after the "post-convention bump". It lasted until she started speaking without a script, if that long.
 
Well, all day long I hear how great Marsha is at this or how wonderful Marsha did that! Marsha, Marsha, Marsha!

Oh please Mr. Brer Nazi -- Whatever you do, please don't throw me in the briar patch!
 
She seems like a perfect choice to me. I have every confidence the GOP will get the presidential and VP nominee it deserves.

As an aside, I wonder how many on the Christian Right know how much Ayn Rand hated Jesus's teachings. It seems that support for Ayn Rand is a lot less controversial among Republicans than say support for Richard Dawkins would be. Even though Rand is arguably more hostile to the alleged teachings of Jesus than Dawkins.
 
i also think most on the left make the assumption that all republicans are jesus freaks when it simply isn't true. Nor even close to being true. (just as all democrats aren't tree hugging bark eaters).


I would reckon that Romney will pick either someone likable (Huckabee or similar) or someone who can deliver some indy votes (Rand Paul) or someone who can deliver a big state (Rubio of florida)

Is it safe to assume that all Republicans will portray themselves as Jesus freaks?
