Would've preferred McDonnell, heck, maybe Cornyn or Ayotte probably would be better, but he wasn't as bad as some say he is.

I think so.

Romney did show significant improvement in Wisconsin from McCain's 2008 results, so the pick likely helped there.

The main conversation about the ticket was that they got along well, so there wasn't much drama. And Ryan didn't make any serious gaffes, or face any major scandals. The top task of a veep is to do no harm, and Ryan succeeded there.

Well, he failed to win a Debate against Biden when the time was ripe, and the Medicare cuts sure came up, and the Soup Kitchen incident.
