re: #237 HappyWarrior

Just another congressional Republican. Really, I don’t blame Romney for not wanting to be tied to the Ryan plan. It’s unpopular and is a sure political and more importantly economic loser. However, he doesn’t get to pick its architect especially when it is said architect’s claim to fame and run away from it. I am glad Erickson recognizes this and is calling Romney out because it’s deeply delusional and dishonest behavior.

Romney got strong-armed into choosing Ryan because the wingnuts love Ryan’s “Plan.” Hate to break it to Willard, but every time he’s tried to have things his way in this campaign, the base has smacked him upside the head. If he thinks that saying “Alright, I’ll choose Ryan, but not his Plan” will win over the base, then he’s in for a serious wake-up call.
