NAO
(3,425 posts)Please not the Grim Brewer. But she would make a great VP pick; that would get her the f**K out of Arizona. The gov of Wisconsin came here last week and is making big plans to destroy all public unions, even fire and police.

Thinkingabout
(30,058 posts)Up to now, it seems as though the algorythm has been: whomever lost the last "straw poll" or "caucus" (or maybe it was whomever came in second...or was it third....???
Wait... I know! It's whomever has the most (least?) wives...

Joe Bacon

I fear who they will draft as his running mate!

Romney - NotRomney - Romney - NotRomney
So it's back to Romney. After that, who knows? Maybe Paul's moment will finally come.
Ebadlun
(336 posts)he might be making headway now - Romney's electability doesn't seem as credible is it was a few weeks ago, and the moderates/elites might be looking for someone more likeable and independent-friendly.

(18,115 posts)but could upset Romney in MI.
Newt is done, but should stay in through Super Tuesday to pick up a big bag of delegates in GA. There are no new frontrunners that can emerge. Raul had his chance in ME and came up short.
