He’ll do it very soon. He’s dropping in the polls, all the talk is about his taxes – he needs a bump and change of topics.
It can’t be another rich white guy – even just to pander to a swing state,
Ayotte is interesting – but Presidential? jconway’s thread: http://bluemassgroup.com/2012/08/romney-ayotte-2012/
My guess is Condi Rice.
Her Bush-era baggage is huge, but she has the gravitas and intellect Willard lacks.
Romney’s thinking will be that she’ll offset his negatives with minorities and women.
Even though they hold opposing views on key issues, his RNC/FOX spin team will play that into positives.
The votes so far:
jconway: Ayotte
methuenprogressive: Rice
jkleschinsky: Rice
trickle-up: Portman
