Re: 2012 U.S. Presidential Election
Roy, I'm gonna ask you two questions, and I want you to answer them honestly:
Is Ryan the man that you expected, and do you think he is the best choice, given what Romney has said in the past?
In my own honest opinion, speaking as someone who followed this campaign, my answer for both questions is "no". While I admit that Ryan is much better than Palin could ever hope to be, Romney expressed his desire for a "safe pick", which Ryan is clearly not.
Edit: Btw, attempts to win the youth vote using a VP tend to end in disaster. I believe that was one of the biggest reasons for G.H.W. Bush choosing Dan Quayle. Not that Ryan is anything like Quayle, I'll admit...
