    Default so much for a tight political organization

    Imagine Romney isn't too pleased with this, as it kinda of steals his thunder from the press conference.

    If nothing else, ryan will inflame the unions to a fever pitch which should help Obama in getting out the vote. Ryan? was the one in Wisconsin right? Or is from Ohio?

    Paul Ryan is a good man, a Christian.

    As I said somewhere else, the Democrats will have a hard time digging dirt up on him (unless they make it up)

    He's from Wisconsin

    While Ryan has some good ideas I think he is a very bad choice. He doesn't bring a lot to the table except his budget idea. Other than that he is like a House version of Obama in my opinion as he has had NO career outside of government. Read his bio. His entire existence has been paid for by the taxpayers. He is a definite insider. There were several others on the list that I believe would have brought much more to the table.

    The Romney/Ryan ticket is so much like the Obummer/Biden ticket that it isn't even funny. Both are tickets are loaded with career politicians (including at least one on each ticket having made their entire career at the public trough), both have supported government mandated health care, both favor some gun control (some more than others) etc etc. Plus having two northerners on the ticket doesn't help with pulling along other regions of the country.

    We truly have been offered a choice that is no choice.

    So we could see a mormon cult president with a Christian vice president? That oughta be interesting.

    I'm not familiar with Ryan, but I just cant imagine - for the life of me - a true Christian being in that position for more than 5 minutes without either 1. straying from his own Christian beliefs within a *very* short time or 2. being knocked off for his beliefs.

    Bush was supposedly a Christian and managed to deceive MILLIONS of Christians into believing his lies. And, of course, Obama has annnounced he is also a Christian.

    I saw this coming earlier this week.

    Steve Forbes: I think Paul Ryan would make a wonderful Vice President

    DC: Do I hear a campaigning here for Paul Ryan for Vice President in you?
    SF: I think he'd make a splendid Vice President. He was an intern at Empower America, an organization I headed up in the early 1990's, which was founded by Jack Kemp, Bill Bennett, and Jeane Kirkpatrick. As a young man there, he obviously understands the Reaganesque pro-growth philosophy.
    SF: I think he'd be wonderful!
