Would this make any difference to you as a voter?

Won’t matter to me. I’ll vote against Obama even if Romney names Biden as his vp.
Would it help or hurt Romney? Don’t know. Do know, among active duty military, he is called “General Betrayus”.
WSF, quite true.
Will his path follow him?

That would be a foolish thing to do. Move on . org are more responsible for the nickname than are frustrated soldiers. The leftist historians have at least 70% of the population thinking that fascism is a right wing phenomenon. Asking him to be VP would play into established perceptions. Furthermore our VP needs to be a damn good legislator. It is going to take fast clean measures to get us out of our troubles. It wouldn’t change my vote of course, but this would be a foolish choice IMHO.
I’m voting for Romney, no matter what his choice for VP is.
Getting OBAKA out of office no matter what,,,is the 1st priority for anyone who loves this country!
Don’t know how I missed this one, anyway… We have to remove Obama, one way or another, it’s that simple..
The good General may cause a lot of concern, I wouldn’t vote for him personally, but the TICKET has got to win this time… No matter how bad Romney and his administration may be, there is no way in hell they can be as bad as ANYTHING Obama and Company can foist off on us…
And again, here we are, the lesser of the evils…
