re: #94 Targetpractice

Romney: “I’ve picked Paul Ryan, whose invaluable experience and economic ideas will help this country.”

Wingnuts: “Awesome! Austerity, here we come!!”

Romney: “But I’m only running with Ryan, his ideas aren’t part of the package.”

Wingnuts: “HUH?!”

That’s really how it comes across. I mean if Romney rejects the Paul plan, why run with its architect. Is he really so politically tone deaf to not realize that even if he plays this game, he will still get linked to it. He really is a hard to figure out person at times. Sometimes, you wonder if he’s really that intelligent. If he wanted to distance himself from the Ryan plan, he should have picked someone like Pawlenty or Portman. But I guess he thinks the Ryan name will be enough to get conservatives enthusiastic for him even as he runs from the guy’s claim to fame and reason for being chosen.
