Mitt Romney Announces Marco Rubio as Running Mate…

Wow! I can’t believe how many people this attracted and if only it was true! If Marco Rubio was Mitt’s running mate I think the primary contest would be over.

I know Marco Rubio felt he had to focus on his first term as the freshman Senator of Florida, but I would suggest that he is needed on the GOP ticket to unite the party and the conservative voter. With Rubio on the ticket conservatives would feel like they had a voice on the ticket, an ally in the White House, and a channel to keep Mitt focused on the conservative agenda throughout the campaign.

I don’t believe Rubio would join a Newt or Ron Paul ticket. He might be convinced to join a Rick Santorum ticket but Rubio would overshadow Rick and I am not sure that would work for Rick Santorum.

I know I got your hopes up but instead of letting the GOP elite crony politicians inject a new candidate, how about we start a movement to strengthen a current campaign that has a real chance of winning in November?

Just a thought (a really good thought!)…

Sounds like a great ticket to me!

I know you don't agree but since I equate Romney with McCain - who's primary support in the beginning came from the establishment and elite UNTIL he added Sarah Palin to his ticket.

So one can only hope that if Romney gets the nomination that your prediction was right.

Newt supported a heathcare mandate as well. He has supported the global warming hoax. He is unpredictable and will be eaten alive by the MSN. The more I hear from and of Newt the less I like him. His family issues really bother me. Anyone that can be so inconsiderate of his family is not my choice as a candidate.

Someone said and I loved it: Newt is a great general in the war but he is no administrator. We need someone that has executive experience. My thoughts...

Again Rich, I equate Romney with McCain and it’s something I can't shake - they are too similar in too many ways. I'll say it again, like McCain, if Romney gets the nomination, he’ll need to add to his ticket someone with courage, someone not afraid to buck the establishment, someone like a Sarah Palin or we will not win this election.

That’s my prediction
