re: #302 doppelganglander
Interesting. I can see the value of having a so-con in the VP slot, but NOT Huckleberry. For one thing, with his inflated ego, he would not accept second place. I also doubt Mitt would consider him, considering what a back-stabbing creep he was in ‘08. Sanford would have been a natural choice if he hadn’t blown up his career. But a Southerner on the ticket would be a very good idea.
You may be right, its unfortunate that the egos of these politicians gets in the way of doing right by the party and country.
The reason I suggested Hucksterby is that because he is a minister, many SoCons would hold their nose and vote for Romney. If there were another person who could get southern SoCons to vote for a Mormon I’d love to see them step forward.
