Mitt Romney Set To Pick Paul Ryan As Running Mate

[Grassy Knoll]

Source: huffingtonpost.com

NORFOLK, Va. -– Mitt Romney will announce Rep. Paul Ryan (R-Wis.) as his running mate on Saturday, according to two sources with knowledge of the decision.

Ryan is a bold pick who will energize the Republican Party, but putting him on the ticket is fraught with risk and instantly puts Ryan's budget plan front and center in the 2012 campaign.

1. Bring it on, Mittens.

Biden will have Ryan for b'fast.

[SleeplessinSoCal]

2. The Nuns are going to freak!

[DesertRat]

5. Sister Simone is my hero!

[DesertRat]

6. +1

[Kennah]

27. Biden will figuratively spank Ryan, but perhaps he should do it literally.

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

3. Can't hardly wait.

Mr. Give Seniors a Medicare Vouture?

These repukes are truly out of touch.

[alp227]

4. NBC just interrupted the Olympics coverage to announce this.

Chuck Todd was live from Washington with the news, then back to the track and field event. (I'm in the West Coast, that's the regularly scheduled programming.)

[SoapBox]

17. Interrupting the Olympics...

took me about 1 second to start swearing as soon as I saw "Chuckles" face...he looked like he
was gonna wet his pants or something.

[LibDemAlways]

7. A wet dream for the baggers. A complete turn-off for independents.

Romney is even more stupid than I thought.

[Grassy Knoll]

8. Bye Bye Florida. n/t

[JCMach1]

78. yep just lost it

And it is virtually impossible for mittens to win without it.

[politicasista]

9. LOL n/t

[aaaaaa5a]

10. This is easy.

We now know the polls are right. Romney knows he is behind. He knows his path to 270 is very difficult.(Nate Silver currently gives him about a 30% chance of winning.) Therefore he is rolling the dice. With safe candidates in battle-ground states (like Rob Portman) available, the fact that Romney has to gamble this heavily to get back in the race is really telling.


Ryan is not a Governor. He is not a Senator. He has never held a Presidential cabinet position. He is a member of the House of Representatives. An area of government that in modern times does not directly lead to the Presidency.


This is Geraldine Ferraro 1984. Of course it won't be called this, because Ryan is a man and therefore will be viewed as more credible. Still, I can't believe the desperation. Clearly, Romney's internal numbers are as bad as I think they are.

[Spitfire of ATJ]

75. "He is a member of the House of Representatives"

To give you an idea of the difference between the House and the Senate.

The Senate used an ivory gavel since 1789 until Richard Nixon broke it in 1954 when he was Vice President. The original was repaired but is only carried as a symbol with it's replacement in a special box brought out solemnly by a page.

[img][/img]

In the House they have boxes of gavels because they break them constantly.

[cstanleytech]

89. What if Ryan isnt the pick though? What if say he went with someone unexpected like say

Lieberman or Lincoln Chafee?

[lavenderdiva]

11. and Andrea Mitchell reported that

Tag Romney was the one given the task of telling Pawlenty and Portman that they had not been chosen. Wouldn't you think that Romney should have done this himself? no balls.

[aaaaaa5a]

13. I still don't understand why Romney didn't take Portman. nt

[elzenmahn]

26. Because Portman...

...is about as exciting as the sight of drying paint.

I think Ryan was seen as a potential game-changer, much like Palin was seen as a game-changer by John McCain. He's perceived as a young, dynamic, charismatic figure with the potential to carry the standard for the party in the future. But the way to defeat him was authored by none other than Paul Ryan himself - his budget proposal, the "Path To Austerity" if he were being truly honest.

This was a classic, hail-mary-pass choice, one made at the end of the first half when a team is getting it's ass kicked and needs a jolt to awaken them from their death trance.

IF we get out the vote, we can send him back to Wisconsin where be belongs.

[dkf]

77. Yes I am beginning to think this will be about austerity...complete with comparisons to Europe.

I think we have defined the debate.

[GoCubsGo]

93. Easy.

He was Dumbya's budget guy, and thus one of the authors of this economic nightmare we are in.

[muriel_volestrangler]

83. That looks like a calculated insult to me

Use one of the interchangeable, low-profile, qualified-because-blood-relation campaign helpers to say "we're sorry, but your application to work with this corporation will not proceed. We wish you all the best in your future career options."

Pawlenty and Portman just got told they're part of The Help.

[lavenderdiva]

98. Exactly.

I'm not going to waste my precious time with you people, who don't need to know what I'm doing now anyway. Classic Mitt

[iamthebandfanman]

12. Awesome!! n/t

[SoapBox]

14. ROFLMAO!

Oh my...this is just too, too delicious.

Paul "KILL Medicare / VoucherCare" Ryan? Eddie Munster II? Old Baggy Eyes?

Mittens could not have picked a better loser...well, Palin would have been more losery but no matter.

This is just too too good.

(...and, Man oh Man, these Thugs/Bullies/Baggers are SO f'ing stupid...this guy is such a creep...just wait until he starts talking, aka, lying.)

[tavalon]

40. Yup, there were many happy possibilities

This one is exceptional. Not quite as fun as Bachmann, but still fun. And since this race really ended the day Rmoney was nominated, it's nice to get a mouse to bat around. Something to keep the boredom factor down for the next few months.

Actually, this race was pretty well never even happening before the 1% ken doll got the nomination. None of the Primary contenders were going to win. He's actually been more fun than I expected. I figured he would be stiff but not gaffe prone. I'm happy to be wrong.

I agree that Palin would have been more losery but that amount of losingness only comes around once in a Palincentury.

[Rochester]

15. So, he's conceding Florida, is he?

Thanks, Mitt, for four more years of Obama!

[MindMover]

16. More starve the poor to pay the rich = Paul Ryan

http://www.democraticunderground.com/125124696

[tavalon]

41. Don't be mad. Be happy

This is a huge gift Rmoney is giving us. We should be thankful and joyous that, in the end, he threw the race. Won't even be close.

[Kablooie]

50. Unless Romney wins.

If the election were on the up and up Obama would eclipse Romney but with all the GOP dirty tricks in play they still may be able to eke out a win.

It makes me uneasy.

[tavalon]

58. Not.gonna.happen

If this is really true, it won't be close enough to steal it. I'm well aware of the things Pugs have done to intimidate and even "lose" ballots but that only works (so far) if it's close. This won't be.

And something I'm learning in my recovery work is that worrying doesn't change the outcome, it only floods my body with chemicals that in large quantities and in the absence of a tiger chasing me, are hurting my insides. And not changing anything outside. So, there's that.

Elections in the US stopped being on the up and up probably before you and I were born. It's gotten worse, no question. But, again, worry only hurts your insides.

[Kablooie]

67. Good points.

And even if the election were stolen there's virtually nothing most of us can do about it so worrying about it serves no purpose.

Now this tiger that's sitting and staring at me right now, that's something to worry about.

[tavalon]

69. Yup, if you do have a tiger staring you down.

Run!!!

[Alameda]

80. it's never good to be too cocky.....

never forget it IS possible for Romney to win....then what?

[Jim Lane]

55. My only qualm is the fear that this is too good to be true.

I worry that this is some sort of phony rumor floated to make the wingnuts think one of their heroes was being seriously considered. (It wouldn't work that way, because their hopes raised and dashed would be even worse for Romney than their current grumpy resignation.)

I'm holding back. I'll take you advice to be happy when it's absolutely 100% totally confirmed. When it is, though -- you're right, a huge gift.

[tavalon]

56. That's reasonable

We're acting like it's already been announced, but it hasn't, so. Party, here, tomorrow, going all weekend!!!!

[wolfsister77]

18. dumb

Wow, dumbest pick ever.

I guess Romney doesn't really want this.

[Kablooie]

51. Kool-aid tea party votes are important to them.

[Ter]

97. Second dumbest

Palin tops it, that one is hard to beat.

[Yukari Yakumo]

19. He's gonna get ripped to shreds

It's like Palin all over again, except a 100x more awesome.

Obama should crush Mittens in a landslide in November.

[elzenmahn]

21. Only if WE GET OUT THE VOTE...

...there are no assurances here - MittWitt's merry band will have ZILLIONS to spend after the convention, and the carpetbombing will begin...

IF we get out the vote, and IF we MAKE SURE WE and OUR FELLOW DEMS are registered (and not thrown off the voting rolls), and IF WE GET TO THE POLLING PLACES AND VOTE -

then it will be US who will crush the MittWitt and his minions.

Let's get 'er done!

[tavalon]

43. Don't worry

Obama isn't going to lose. If there was any doubt (which there wasn't, as soon as we new that RMoney was the contestant), that's all gone. People will vote in droves. Some will be voting for Obama, many will be voting again RMoney. In the end, it will be a rout.

It's in the bag. Lets have fun playing with the mouse that Mittens is giving us. Leave the angst behind. Really.

[Poll_Blind]

31. Everything you said x 1000. nt

PB

[Lone_Star_Dem]

20. Paul - a majority of Americas don't want his budget - Ryan?

Bring it on.

Funny, when I first saw the rumor he was going to announce tomorrow, on a Saturday, I said, "who's he picking? Satan?

Bye-bye Independents. It appears they were more worried about not even getting their Teabaggers to the polls than courting you!

[progressivebydesign]

24. He wants to give the poor $200.00 a month credit to buy health insurance, dump Medicaid

Yeah. that will go well. Considering the republicans would find a way out of the pre existing condition clause, plus a credit on the taxes for the poor doesn't work, plus I pay $222.00 for one person, for shitty health insurance that has a 7,500.00 dollar deductible, and nothing but catastrophic. Oh this will be good...

[Pilotguy]

22. Did the Romney Camp

demand to see ten years of Ryan's tax returns? Do you think anyone in the press corp will ask that question? Hahahaha....I can't even type that question without busting out laughing at the sheer implausibility of that ever happening.

[Deep13]

23. In an unrelated story, Romney shoots his own foot. nt

[tavalon]

44. Innumerable times

RMoney gives DU a mouse to play with for the next few months. He won't survive (figuratively) even a week of DU playing, but it will be a fun week.

So much to work with, with this one. Thank you, thank you, thank you, RMoney.

[dpbrown]

25. And thereby exposing himself as the eunuch that he is

By posing at the USS Wisconsin to announce his VP pick, at a mothballed and disarmed hulk, a museum piece, a neutered eunuch relic of a battleship incapable of protecting America anymore, Romney has literally embraced his own emasculation and his status as a straw man incapable of leading America.

[SoapBox]

36. OMG...it's gonna be Mittens "Mission Accomplished" moment!

Will there be a banner?

VoucherCare!

DeathPanels!

Get Your Own Damned Insurance SENIORS!

...bumperstickers.

[UnrepentantLiberal]

28. What a HUGE fuck up.

Please let this be true. If it is, the Republican base left him no other choice. Team Obama will have him for lunch.

[elzenmahn]

30. And if Biden plays his cards right at the upcoming veep debate...

...and exposes Ryan's budget for the bullshit-on-a-stick that it is, perhaps we can stop all of this talk about austerity once and for all.

[elzenmahn]

34. I believe it is true

This was the story on HuffPost.

I'm just delighted beyond words right now. Only pictures will do.

[UnrepentantLiberal]

37. Speaking of pictures, can you imagine how happy

EarlG is going to be when he wakes up tomorrow?

[tavalon]

45. Yep, EarlG is going to have a fine day

Yes, he is.

[Kennah]

29. Sarah Palin can breath easier

She will no longer be the bat shit craziest V.P. nominee in history

[tavalon]

46. But she's still the stupidest, even keeping Quayle in the mix

She's Palinesque in her stupidity. But yeah, this one is quite insane too.

[Rhiannon12866]

32. CNN is announcing this now.

[Kalidurga]

33. I hope I am not disappointed tomorrow...

But, ever since the tax thing broke it's been an unending joy to read about Romney's adventures in foot sucking. I expect one day Romney is going to disappoint me and do something smart. I hope tomorrow is not that day.

[elzenmahn]

38. Do you mean...

...by announcing somebody other than the Budget Munster as his pick?

I think you can rest assured. For MittWitt, this was a stupid choice. The MSM will need to change their collective diapers multiple times if he announces anybody else tomorrow.

[Kalidurga]

60. Yes I mean exactly that.

A smart pick might have been Rudy awkward last name. Or I dunno anyone but the guy that is going to be the anvil weight on his sinking ship. I just hope this is like his taxes something he can not flip flop on. Ryan would just be too good a pick for our side.

[Iliyah]

35. All of what is being said means nothing

They are trying to rig the elections and what I see, doing a good job of doing it.

Quite successfully the gop are doing this and the corporate media will not report it.

[Rhiannon12866]

39. CNN just announced that it's gong to be Ryan...

They're analyzing how it will affect the campaign now.

[elzenmahn]

42. An election can only be stolen....

...if it's seen as being relatively close - which admittedly, the MSM is trying to portray the race as being. But if the polls are the same in November as they are now, with Obama leading with numbers outside of the margin of error, then their attempts at election theft will be so transparent, that the shrinking legitimacy of our electoral process will be reduced to absolute zero. Mittens would then be seen both domestically and internationally as an imposter to the Presidency, even more so than Baby Bush was.

[tavalon]

47. Never more than the silverspoon sociopath

Shrub was the ultimate imposter to the Presidency.

[part man all 86]

48. Rmoney/Rheartless R is for regressive.

The R factor.

[Kablooie]

49. So Romney decided to sit back and disappear as Ryan grabs all the attention.

Really weird.
They will push Ryan as essentially the next president to make the conservatives forget they are really voting for non-tea party Romney.
It's between Ryan and Obama now.

[AndyTiedye]

54. Paul "Throw Granny off the Cliff" Ryan?

We do NOT want that person a heartbeat away from the Presidency! NO!!!!

[Hamlette]

57. WSJ made him do it. Can't stand up for anything.

Weak man.

Can't wait until the media starts talking about Paul making his staff read Ayn Rand and what THAT means.

Still makes me nervous, just when I was resting easier about the race. As bad as President Romney sounds, think of President Ryan.

[Cali_Democrat]

59. BWHAHAHAH!!! No effing...way....really?

WOW!!!

[Sen. Walter Sobchak]

61. I think Romney already had the thirty year old virgin policy wonk vote locked down...

He needed a fire breathing southern nutjob who would rant and rave about fornication and sodomy to GOTV from the lunatic fringe who doesn't like the preppy mormon corporate raider any better than we do.

too true.
This is excellent news.

[LarryNM]

63. Weenie Man to the Rescue ! n/t

[JDPriestly]

64. Is Paul Ryan also a 1%er? A spoiled rich kid?

[muriel_volestrangler]

84. By his own standards, he's a looter and moocher

His family received Social Security survivor benefits after his father died when he was a teenager. Since then, of course, he's become a 1%er - and now gets special tax credits for his house, it's so damn fancy:

In any way that will come to matter to the people whose lives his policies will make harder and more miserable, Paul Ryan is still the high-school kid living off Social Security survivor benefits and reading Ayn Rand by flashlight under the sheets. Instead, he's a guy pretending to be something he's not, and doing so back in Janesville in a very swell Georgian mansion, which just happens to be listed on the National Register Of Historic Places.

Which, among other things, means that Paul Ryan, who lies awake at night worrying that The Deficit will come and eat our grandchildren, lives in a house overseen by the National Park Service, which means that he qualifies for a 20 percent investment tax credit for the house he lives in. Of course, his "budget" would largely decimate the NPS, but that would be only those parts of it enjoyed by other people. Yes, Paul Ryan, the zombie-eyed granny starver, has done very well by the federal government that he seeks to dismantle. Come to think of it, so has Willard Romney, although we may never know exactly how well he's done by it. It turns out this is a match made in heaven, after all.

http://www.esquire.com/blogs/politics/The_Ryan_Pick?src=rss

Of course, if the tax credit for his current house is under threat, it's OK - he's aiming to move into even fancier accommodation, entirely paid for by the taxpayer. But he still loves him some Ayn Rand.

[JDPriestly]

88. Interesting point.

Should an Ayn Randian Vice President live in quarters paid for out of taxes?

Or shouldn't he build a fortress for himself and his family, say on the National Mall with his own hands? Wouldn't that be a more Randian thing to do? Stand on his own two feet and not depend on the government for his house?

What's more. Do we have to pay these Ayn Rand followers salaries? Why? Aren't they supposed to be chieftains of industry who take nothing from the government?

[senseandsensibility]

65. Was there any doubt that he would? The teaparty and his donors demanded it.

We all know that romney had no mind of his own.

[harmonicon]

66. Hilarious. (nt)

[synapticwave]

68. I agree with everyone

here that this is another massive screwup for RMoney. But...on intrade, over the last hour, both Obama's re-election and Romney's election chances are equally down 1%.

In other words, the betting market is not yet sure how to evaluate this news, which is a bit baffling to me but it is giving me reason to pause my celebrating.

edit: actually NEVERMIND. I misread the graphs. Since Midnight CST, Obama is up .5% and RMoney is down .9%.

[Tx4obama]

70. Kick! n/t

71. President Obama calls Ryan's plan “thinly veiled social Darwinism”

http://www.latimes.com/news/politics/la-pn-romney-picks-paul-ryan-as-running-mate-20120810,0,7029386.story

This should prove interesting.

[Douglas Carpenter]

72. well it's more clever than picking Sarah Palin - I'll give him that

Well maybe not. If Sarah Palin was an apolitical person and my neighbor next door - I would just think she is one of those wacky characters who can be entertaining in small to moderate doses. Paul Ryan has about as much personality as -- hmm, well Mitt Romney - and his strongest point of name recognition is as the person who wants to dismantle Social Security, Medicare and every other program that the elderly and disabled and everyone else depends on.

[LeftishBrit]

73. Noooooo! I've heard of him a few times and he's HORRIBLE!

[elzenmahn]

99. Horrible...for the Repubs

Paul Ryan wrote the very playbook that will be used to defeat him and the MittWitt. He'll go on a major charm offensive with the MSM, and that may affect the numbers a bit. But considering Team Obama's rapid responses to the MittWit's gaffes, plus the ad that was released even before the official nomination, he's going to find that he's out of his league. I'm hoping that all of this exposure will even cost him his congressional seat - in which case he'll likely move on to K Street and make a nice little living for himself as a lobbyist-shill.

Watch how Biden handles him in the veep debate. Ryand is toast.

[shireen]

74. Congratulations to President Obama!

Those two clowns are about to hand Pres. Obama a second term.

[cecilfirefox]

76. It will put the budget front and center- interesting. This will be a neat one to watch play out. nt

[chknltl]

79. Hey freepers

Found THIS link while ghosting your....well um....not sure what you call that place. At any rate, glad that most of you liked the Ryan pick. At least we agree on two things: Paul Ryan does not scare us and mitt the twit was a horrible choice to go up against President Obama.

I know that most of you do not believe in democracy. If you did you would be outraged that a party, (that would be YOUR party), is scrubbing millions of our fellow Americans off of the voting rolls. THESE ARE LEGAL LEGITIMATE VOTERS!

The ONLY way your mob has a chance against the will of WE THE PEOPLE is to cheat, in other words to bypass our democracy. The GOP knows that Romney/Ryan can not even come close to winning without cheating. They destroy our democracy in order to make this race even close, does that concern you? Don't bother, I already know the answer.

Do you know who Paul Weyrich is? He co-founded the Heritage Foundation. I am sure you know what that is. He is considered to also be one of the founders of todays conservative movement He agreed with you when it comes to democracy, specifically about legitimate voters being able to vote. Here are his very words on the topic:

http://m.youtube.com/#/watch?desktop_uri=%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DWPsl_TuFdes&v=WPsl_TuFdes&gl=US

That then is our difference. We support democracy, we welcome all, including you into our democracy. You do not support democracy.

osama bin laden did not support democracy, as a matter of fact, according to you guys he hated us for it. When it comes to democracy, you are either with us or you are with the terrorists.

[muriel_volestrangler]

82. The zombie-eyed granny-starver from Wisconsin

Charles Pierce, in Esquire, has had Ryan pegged for months. That description of him is perfect (he has less soul than Mitt Romney, and that's quite an acheivement), and I think 'ZEGS' needs to become the standard appellation over the next 3 months (after which, his career will be over, apart from bitter sniping from a wingnut welfare job at the AEI or similar, and increasing rare spots on Fox News). Mr. Pierce values his weekends off, and normally doesn't post to his blog on them; I hope he had this pre-written, just in case:

Make no mistake. In his decision to make Paul Ryan, the zombie-eyed granny-starver from Wisconsin, his running mate, Romney finally surrendered the tattered remnants of his soul not only to the extreme base of his party, but also to extremist economic policies, and to an extremist view of the country he seeks to lead. This is unimaginable to those of us who lived under Romney's barely perceptible stewardship of the Commonwealth (God save it!). If he'd even hinted that he agreed with a fraction of a smidgen of a portion of the policies on which Ryan has built his career, Romney would have been hanging from the Sacred Cod by the middle of 2005. And it's hard not to notice that the way the decision got leaked -- in the dead of a Friday night, with the Olympics still going on, after two weeks in which Romney and his campaign had demonstrated all the political skills of a handball -- fairly dripped with flopsweat.

(And how'd you like to be poor Tim Pawlenty, being told by Tagg Romney that he'll be riding in the roof carrier to Iowa again, with nothing in his future except, maybe, a couple of bucks at Christmas.)

Which is not to say this isn't a shrewd move. In one great swoop, he has recaptured a good portion of the elite political media, which has been crushing on Ryan's "courage" to take on the "tough choices" -- none of which, it should be pointed out, likely will affect Ryan, who's already got himself an education out of the social safety net he now intends to shred, and certainly will never affect the haircut at the top of the ticket, or his great-grandchildren, for all that -- and the coverage of the pick in the middle of the night last night showed that many of our finer chattering heads are already practicing tying the stem of the cherry with their tongues in preparation for covering the new Republican ticket. On CNN, at about 1:35 this morning, Wolf Blitzer was already warning Democrats not to get too cocky in the face of Paul Ryan's mighty intellect. "In 1980," Wolf told us, "Democrats were high-fiving when the Republicans nominated Ronald Reagan."
...
Paul Ryan is an authentically dangerous zealot. He does not want to reform entitlements. He wants to eliminate them. He wants to eliminate them because he doesn't believe they are a legitimate function of government. He is a smiling, aw-shucks murderer of opportunity, a creator of dystopias in which he never will have to live. This now is an argument not over what kind of political commonwealth we will have, but rather whether or not we will have one at all, because Paul Ryan does not believe in the most primary institution of that commonwealth -- our government. The first three words of the Preamble to the Constitution make a lie out of every speech he's ever given. He looks at the country and sees its government as an something alien that is holding down the individual entrepreneurial genius of 200 million people, and not as their creation, and the vehicle through which that genius can be channelled for the general welfare. In the lengthy -- and now, very prescient -- profile of Ryan that ran in The New Yorker this week, Ryan Lizza pinned him down on this very point. Ryan responded in fluent Weaselspeak.

I still don't know why I just turned on MSNBC this early (I couldn't sleep), but this is unbelievable. Am I dreaming here? OMG.

90. Telling seniors that you will take away their social security is a big vote getter

[Adenoid_Hynkel]

91. This seriously puts the House in play

the average low-info voter had no idea what the Ryan budget was - now they're going to hear all about it.
and every GOP candidate is going to have to explain their support for it this fall.

[GoCubsGo]

92. A "bold" pick?

Nothing bold about catering to the kooks in your party. And, that's about all that is left there.

[Norbert]

94. What a Great Way to end the week

The Gaff-o-matic runinng on steroids, piss off the Japanese, Fransiscan Monks and now the seniors.

Well, at least Mittens will get the Munster vote. No Wait, Herman, Lilly and Grandpa are dead. At least he will get the Munster vote.

[underpants]

95. Damn I knew it! When I read that he would announce this on the USS Wisconsin I knew it

I should have posted it.


Oh well....serve him up
