OMG; How could anybody forget the Nuggie.

Wonder if he would take Mittens to shoot baby bears hibernating.

Well, he has the 1%'ers and angry white people coalition in his pocket. Now how can he broaden his base without alienating the T-baggers? Gov. Jindal?

How does an unlikeable, untrustworthy and unfit Presidential Candidate  select  their VP choice?

Mitt, it just doesn't matter. You've already lost the November, 2012 Election.

He should pick the 1994 version of Mitt Romney. That would neatly balance the ticket.

I'd settle for just knowing his platform, his PLAN's for the country because according to his website, most of what he suggests we do is stuff President Obama has either already done or suggested doing only to be told "NO" by the GOP in Congress. The stuff he has no clue about he just says "I have a detailed plan and I'll tell you after I win". His only National Security suggestion is that we go to war with Iran within the first 100 days of the new term. His job creation solution is to create jobs like "he did at Bain" except most of those jobs weren't in this country. His economic solution is "investment by the private sector" but if they've all followed his lead and keep their money overseas I can't see how that happens.
