Mitt Romney's Chances

MandaLee @MandaLee (3764) • United States 11 Aug 12

Do you think selecting Ryan as his Vice Presidential running mate has a positive or negative effect on Mitt Romney's chances of being elected President in November? Why or why not?

brothertuck I think that Paul Ryan as Vice President would help the Romney campaign. Romney is a moderate Republican, although conservative, he's not conservative enough for some. Ryan is more conservative and those conservative Republicans will be more inclined to not...

brothertuck We've been lucky here so far, hasn't hit the 90s yet and actually been in the lower 80s. Later in the summer I am sure it will hit the 90s, and even break 100. On those days I'll either stay in the air condition with a nice cold jug of iced tea, or make a trip...

brothertuck Packaged bread is never as good as fresh-made, I'm glad that most of the groceries near me have bake shops in them, although at the same time, I am trying to cut down on carbs and can usually just stand there and smell the fresh baked goodness.
