Romney's Lack Of Potential Running Mates

[WI_DEM]

1. If Mittens were smart

he would select either Olympia Snowe or Susan Collins both of Maine.

Why?

yes, it would piss off the hard right but they really have nowhere else to go. But it would be interpeted by the media as a bold selection and one which would demonstrate he wasn't tied to the right wing. What he loses with the far right he might gain with independent and moderate voters.

Why he won't pick them?

Easy they are both pro-choice women who support Planned Parenthood and voted for the Obama Economic program.

If he goes with a woman it might be Kay Bailey Hutchinson.
