He won't make the decision based upon trying to woo a specific crowd. He'll go for a safer bet. Which, after watching the 2008 fiasco I'm all for the safer bet. Heaven forbid we get an untested candidate up on that national stage again.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3571954475140446599.post-1907857567692081342012-04-17T14:06:00.615-04:002012-04-17T14:06:00.615-04:00Rubio shouldnt be VP because Obama will run this r...Rubio shouldnt be VP because Obama will run this race as being against the rich and exposing Mitt's weird mormonism.

He's right up there with Larry O'Donnell with filthy talk about Mormons. He's a lying con man. He's NOT trying to advocate a path for Romney to win. <br /><br />It's a waste of time talking about Rubio. Rubio says he's not the VP candidate. Either he's a liar or he isn't the VP candidate. I don't think he's a liar. <br /><br />The historic 2010 Election Landslide is the best indicator of November 2012 Election results: Romney will win.<br /><br />My experience with Jennifer Rubin is that she is a Romney supporter. I respect her tremendously. She is a major truth teller.

The good news is that it is very possible for him to win, but I would give him about a 40% chance at this point. <br /><br />As RightWingnut has pointed out, if Romney can't make inroads in Colorado or Nevada, then he has limited options elsewhere.Pablohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06622986304847436893noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3571954475140446599.post-22523055893107901002012-04-17T12:29:04.002-04:002012-04-17T12:29:04.002-04:00By MR MR - RW is exactly right.

Perhaps like Scrooge RW has seen the ghost of Christmas future (Obama) and want to avoid it by joining the team. We do need the right wing. We also need Independents. Per RW the "vast majority" of the RW finds Rubio acceptable as do independents. As for the map while I think Mitt has a 50-50 shot at PA, CO and NH and outside shots at MI and WI but no chance in IA or NM, I also think Obama has a 50-50 shot at OH, and outside side at FLA (even with Rubio) and VA/NC.

She fails to take into account changing demographics in NM, CO, and NV since the 2004 election. He very well may need to win at least one of those states. To do so, he will need a large share of the Hispanic vote. Knowing this, it's interesting that she doesn't mention any Hispanics as potential running mates.Right Wingnuthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06387554010360328076noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3571954475140446599.post-3062666776964704142012-04-17T10:27:57.284-04:002012-04-17T10:27:57.284-04:00This web site tool is cool and has been around for...This web site tool is cool and has been around for yrs.<br /><br />Here is an article from this morning outlining Romney's Electoral College outlook.....<br /><br />http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/right-turn/post/romneys-bright-electoral-landscape/2012/04/15/gIQA9jcsJT_blog.html?tid=pm_opinions_pop<br /><br />Basically if he runs stronger than McCain but weaker than Bush he can still winDoug NYC GOPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00457483710583021449noreply@blogger.com
