He should pick Gohmert. His impeachment plans against Kagan and his bold conservative leadership will only help Romney by energizing the base.
Alienating independents has worked so well in the past, hasn't it?
Romney doesn't have a problem with independents, he has a problem with the base.
It's not like the base is going to vote for Obama.
No sh*t! No one is going to vote for the Obumbler, but they may stay home or vote 3rd party. That's why I say to pick a true conservative for VP: Palin, Gohmert, Bachmann, or - as a dark horse - Mo Brooks.
