Romney's loan requirement for being President is his work at Bain. He's based his entire campaign on being a business man. You should know you can't just say that and think the media and your opponent are gonna take oh at your word. This is more 2004 swift-boating. Taking your opponent's largest asset and turning it into an anchor. George Bush did it with Senator Kerry's military service and President Obama is doing it with Gov. Romney's private-sector experience.

Bob McDonnell- takes VA off the map Doesn't do much in Virginia, maybe a point or so
Rubio- takes FL off the map
Christie- rallies the conservative base and makes NJ competitive New Jersey is not going red anytime soon, even with Christie on the ticket
Kasich- takes OH off the map in all likelyhood really not that popular, he might even hurt him.
Huntsman- moderate New England ticket never hurt the country but wouldn't be strategic Huntsman was Gov. of Utah and was probably the MOST conservative running this year, he just wasn't crazy enough.
Jeb Bush- would outshine Romney
Thune- safe pick
Brown- too early in his career
Pawlenty- safe pick
Jindal- safe pick
Daniels- safe pick
Haley- not enough momentum and there are better choices

I thought I would get the basics off of my chest. What do you guys think?
