This is the wrongest thing you've ever said.
Beans beans the musical fruit!

Cubans already tend towards conservatism anyway (in my experience, a big reason Cubans and Mexicans don't get along famously). I doubt he'll get enough Cuban votes to make up for the losses among Mexicans.That is possible, though my comments where more perception than reality. How Rubio is percieved is what is important. Besides, the Cuban-American vote is probably more important than the Mexican American vote. He won't get the latter, but if he gets enough of the former, he might win Florida.
We all know that Romney is most likely going to win the nomination. Vote now for who you think he'll choose for a veep!
Very popular in Florida, which is a big swing state, hispanic so would help there, seems to be popular with the republican base(ie where Romney is weak) and as I understand it(being on the outside) has good conservative credentials.
Tell that to John McCain. And George H.W. Bush.

Governor of Virginia.
1. Is wildly popular in a swing state. Last election, Democrats ran ads about how much they liked him and wanted to help him work his policies through Richmond.
2. Is conservative; both fiscally and (critically) socially. This bolsters Romney's weakness with movement conservatives and allows him to shore up his base from a painful prolonged primary moving into the General.
3. Can only serve his current term by Virginia Constitution. Will therefore not be distracted by need to run for reelection in Virginia, nor will it be a problem that he's "not finishing his time here" among voters in that state.
Daniels is an extremely strong governor with good fiscal conservative credentials and little in the way of social policy that will cause negatives. But Daniels doesnt campaign well, he governs extremely well. Problem is the VP doesnt govern much of anything really.
I think Daniels would make a great VP, he's had a great run as governor and gives a great speech. Campaigning he's done pretty good, he is the Governor.
3. It is too early. Rubio/Ryan run as co-Presidents in 2024, win every state, and lead over the rebirth of the American Empire which then stretches to cover the entire earth and in fact solar system. Angels sing their praises where'er they go, and all children become above average.
Did you see his response to the the SOTU? :yawn:
Yes I did and it was great. I yawned during Obama's speech, could hardly stay awake.
Pretty faces win elections.
