Fred Barnes of the Weekly Standard reports that President Bush favors former Massachusetts governor Mitt Romney as Sen. John McCain's (R-AZ) running mate, as does Jeb Bush, who "preferred Romney over McCain in the primaries." Bill Kristol also recently stated that "Mitt Romney would be good," adding that he "vetted the idea with former White House aide Karl Rove."

That must mean Romney is the corporate inside man they want to insure they can continue to drain our treasury.

McCain/Romney is like putting two pigs in a blanket.

McCain isn't Bush's boy. They hate each other but McCain is willing to suck up to anyone to get in office.

Of course the neocons want Romney. He will be their new puppet once they do in McCain. I wonder what the booking odds are in Las Vegas that McCain would finish his first term.

Romney was their first choice for President. So now they choose him as VP? Watch your back, McCain.

Yay! Run with the Mormon dog abuser!!!

American's are more bigoted about what version of a god you believe in than race or gender.

I think the real VP will be Jeb, Romney is a red herring.
Bush knows McCain wont accept Romney .
Jeb is the man the neocons want.

Once John W McBomb checks out,

a new VP will be needed and is the

only way another Bush could get in.

And have actually ever watched this guy operate on the floor of the Senate? Well, it is pretty clear no one in Nevada has either. Turn on C-Span every once in awhile. You will be shocked!

I guess all these years with LDS senators has been lost on you huh UB? There is not an ounce of prejudice in your blood is there, not even towards the Mormons? Oh wait, hmmmmm... After further review, it can be safely said that you are a religious bigot.

Ugh Indeed!

I have a serious problem with mormons. Why? As a black person i don't feel right supporting one, when they think the only way i can get into heaven, is as a slave. Please don't tell me about their God coming back in 1978 to tell them "its OK now, i was wrong".

They still believe that shit. When they come to my door, and see what color i am, some without saying a word, just walk away. When they do that, i tell them to scat, hurry the fuck up and get out of my yard.

Ronald Reagan was supposed to have fallen asleep in meetings, part of his mental meltdown that allowed GHWB to run the country, Iran Contra, etc. and rant about the New World Order, while his devil spawn was snorting the cocoa at Camp Cocoa David.

It looks like in this picture above that John McCain falls asleep standing up in Press Conferences.

I'd call that an advance, wouldn't you?

Bush is not as dumb as he looks.

The bush family has been running the romney campaign.

romney will do and say what ever bush says.

Romney will run the country from the Veep just like cheney does now.

meanwhile look at the DEMs again...Hillary trying to steal it....its so pathetic.

OF COURSE he does....

The plan was for ROMNEY to get the candidacy, then JEB of the OTHER BUSH would be ensconced as the Opus Dei representative..uh...I mean....the VP for Romney and ...VOILA!.....he's right in place for 2012.

RightWingNuts will do ANYTHING to get that POTUS back.

Anything.
