Dick Cheney idolizes Ryan

there can be no doubt now, while Romney flip flops and governed as a moderate republican....this message is to show who is in charge.....

The right-wing neo-cons with there tea-billy supporters...

I know he does elvis, but I don't know that this is really a good choice. Paul Ryans budget was not met with thrills among the ranks, more chills than anything. This budget plan of his may be the undoing of this campaign.

We shall see. Should be interesting if nothing else.

Just thought I would post this for all the members, the comments section is very interesting:

I am in contact with the our county board of elections boss (Dem) and the official "thinking" there is Romney still needs to "shore up" his support within the party and this is almost a move of desperation....

My feeling being pro-democrat is that this makes it entirely clear that a republican administration will be completely for the rich..

Mr ryan has had two jobs, a paper-boy, and part of a family business,, so he does favor nepotism...the rest of his life he has been an elected official...

no "real world" business experiance with him....

Two companies control 80% of the voting machines in the US, and two highly placed executives are brothers (one on each company)---hmmmmm.....

exit polls varied by as much as 7% with voting machine results...they got rid of exit polls....

I am thinking the rightwing contriolled votting machines may "FIX" the election no matter what the vote....

I fear that too, elvis. It's prime for corruption.

What i want to know is "Who watches the watchers"?? Who monitors the final count? I dont trust in very much these days....

My feeling being pro-democrat is that this makes it entirely clear that a republican administration will be completely for the rich.

With Ryan as his choice we are now seeing Romney's Bain strategy come to roost. Make money for the wealthy by cutting jobs, not creating jobs.

It is scary to think again to have a tea partier so close to the presidency.

To vet Ryan, Romney's camp had to look at several years of Ryan's tax return. Yet Romney seems hesitant to release more than one or two years of his.

Ryan had stated that he will only release two years, also. I think this will be the scariest election I have lived through. A Romney/Ryan administration will mean the end of the middleclass.

If Ryan releases only two then it "looks" like they are alike in thinking. Maybe a good political strategy, but foolish if they believe the masses think they aren't hiding something.

This is when everyone needs to stand up. Women in particular. I don't care about your party affiliation, this team represents an attack on women of all ages. Our vote does not seem to matter to them and they certainly are not speaking for "US".

Women and older workers will suffer for this. Ryan, who wants to privatize SS and voucher Medicare has forgotten his roots. He is where he is today because of the "entitlements" he wants to slash to bare bones. His dad passed away when he was a boy, and he received his SS check to help his family stay out of poverty. I guess what was good for him applies to no one else. I keep seeing that commercial "throw grandma off the cliff" every time I see his face.

Ryan's dad was an attorney, family owns a very large national construction company. Basically, his family help build the town in WI that he grew up in. His home was in the privledged area of the town. And, he actually worked at McDonald's at 16. That part was surprising, good for him. I heard the NPR report on the radio this morning. After his Dad died, that was when he got really interested in the conservative movement, etc.
