Under Romney’s belief that a President should have at least three years of private sector experience, does Paul qualify? Is this considered another flip flop, or does it not count because of Pauls time spent at McDonalds in high school?

This IS a good ticket.

Ryan brings so much to the Romney table.

America – we need to get behind these men and take our Country back
AND to new heights, and I believe we will.

We’re TIRED of Obama’s EXCUSES which are JUST LIES.

Obama has had a ” hidden agenda” from DAY ONE – and he has
USED the American PEOPLE for 4 years – lieing and saying he’s
trying to bring Jobs or doing what is FAIR, etc.– INSTEAD – he made
everything much WORSE…but, his lies were just STALL TACTICS,
while he focused & worked tirelessly on DISMANTLING AMERICA.

ONLY the ignorant and unaware believed his lies in 2008 and NOW.
Obama BROUGHT A RECORD OF ” NOTHING” TO THE WH in 2008-
and has MAINTAINED THAT RECORD UNTIL PRESENT.

His time was been WAY OVER-DUE for getting rid of him…and with
Romney & Ryan Administratiobn, THIS IS THE OPPORTUNITY!

TODAY – we were shown a glimmer of REAL HOPE & CHANGE.

WE MUST TAKE IT OR CONTINUE TO RIDE OBAMA’S DEAD END ROAD
OF LIES, DESPAIR & DOOM – TIL THERE IS NO MORE ROAD.

From THIS MOMENT ON – Americans ought to show Obama
WE MEAN BUSINESS AND HIS LIES WE WILL NO ACCEPT.

His plan IS NOT AN AMERICAN PLAN.
His way IS NOT AN AMERICAN WAY.

Obama is NOT A FAILURE.
He’s accomplished ALMOST everything he set out to do,
WITH LIES & DECEPTION.

BUT, AMERICA IS GOING TO STOP THE COMPLETION OF HIS PLAN -
WITH GOD’S HELP, TRUTH, HONESTY AND THE AMERICAN WAY.

…
I sure hope Ryan can put some energy into Romney’s campaign, the way Palin energized McCain’s campaign.
Poor ole Romney is so boring. He’s like watching paint dry.

Love how these NBC DORKS say that since Ryan is the choice, this “indicates that he’s been vetted within an inch of his life. . . ” I would say that Ryan is well vetted and has shown his abilities and results in his years in Congress.

Why was/is NBC not concerned/interested in vetting Obama and his czars, appointments, coucils, etc. He sure wasn’t/isn’t vetted within an “yard” of his life!

Go Romney/Ryan–the team where R&R mean work, truth, results and faith, IN and FOR the United States of America–there is no other!

Too bad Rmoney hasn’t won the nomination yet.

Ron Paul hasn’t dropped out either and is going viral.

  “and is going viral.”
  
  I always thought the Paulbots had some kind of virus. Obviously it affects the brain.

  I am a HUGE Ron Paul fan and he is the only one who understands that govt spending, size and power outside the DEFENSE of this country and running our courts is a danger and a threat to our liberty, prosperity and our lives. Period.
  
  I am not a Paulbot – I believed in these ideas before I heard of Ron Paul, but he is the only one to agree with me.
  
  That said, I am working to get Romney and the republican party to reject Health Care interference, coercive interference in the free market, assassination of American Citizens and meddling in foreign wars.
  
  If I vote for Romney/Ryan it will be because I believe they are better than Obama, but also they need to show they “get it”. The Ryan plan does not go far enough fast enough, but it is a start.

Lil Ayn Rand is a much better speaker than Mitt… no wonder Mitt just told us Ryan would be the next President.

What a great choice. By picking Ryan, Romney illustrates how he has his finger on the pulse of America’s need for life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. It tells me that Romney understands that this partnership with Ryan will begin the journey to restoring our country. Then extending to partner with us, we have a bright future for our children and grandchildren. Let us stand together and join hands to move us forward to liberty and fiscal responsibility. God bless America!

Great choice! Do not underestimate Paul Ryan. He has a workable budget plan that has appeal for Both sides, even if the BO progressives made it look like he was throwing GRANNY off the cliff. His SS reform WILL WORK and there are no changes at all for anyone over 55, so Granny is good to go and young people might even have a chance at collecting THEIR OWN retirement funds. I am very pleased with this choice. Now Romney has to have Allen West, Marco Rubio, Bobby Jindal, Rob Portman, Michelle Bachmann, Joe Walsh, and several others in his cabinet! Even find a place for Sarah Palin. (Just to pizz off the left) ;) ;) OH, and Sherriff JOE should take Nasty old Janet’s job as director of HOMELAND SECURITY! HAHA

  Pay close attention to the house and senate as well. VERY IMPORTANT races and the left knows it. They have targeted many races. PLEASE check it out and help THOSE candidates, as well. We WILL do this! I’m pumped! http://www.rollcall.com/politics/2012_race_rating_map.html
