President Romney and Vice President Biden?!?!?
First let me be absolutely clear, for almost a year now, and still do think this election is going to be a Slam dunk with regards to President Obama getting re-elected. BUT,
Reading this article:
http://news.yahoo.com/romney-biden-administration-could-happen-223736689--abc-news-politics.html
just about sent chills down my spine with just the potential prospect. Talk about adding insult to injury if Mittens did win.
"1) In the House vote for President, each state delegation gets a single vote. So California, with 53 Representatives (majority of them Democrats), would likely cast its single vote for Obama. South Dakota with just one Representative (Republican), would get equal weight and likely cast its vote for Romney, and so on.
All told, in the current House, Republicans have majority control of 33 state delegations; Democrats control 14 and 3 are evenly divided. Even if the Democrats win control of the House, the Republicans would almost certainly still control a majority of the state delegations. Bottom line: Romney wins.
2) In the Senate vote for Vice President, each Senator gets a single vote. If Democrats keep control of the Senate, Biden would likely win (unless somebody crosses party lines).
If the new Senate is divided 50-50 (a plausible outcome), the sitting Vice President would cast the tie-breaking vote. That sitting vice President: Joe Biden. Yes, Joe Biden would be the deciding vote in re-electing Vice President Joe Biden. Bottom line: If Democrats keep control of the Senate, Biden likely wins.
Voila! You have a Romney-Biden Administration, the greatest political odd couple since the Adams-Jefferson Administration (now those two had real political differences)."
I'm pretty confident about our holding the Presidency this go-around, but wow, that scenario would be extremely hard to digest.

They are forgetting that Slow Joe is so stooooopid, that he would vote for Ryan. OTOH, he might deliberately vote for Ryan, because Slow Joe as VP for Romney would have less power and responsibilities than he does now.

Considering that the representatives of the Muslim Brotherhood have more appearances logged at the White House than Joe Biden does over the past 4 years, I think that would be exceptionally difficult to do.

Slo Joe doesn't have any now.
Does that mean he gets into negative responsibility?
No, wait, he's already into the negatives.

Somebody got sold the cut rate, discount crack, methinks. Probably because they still have month left at the end of the ObamaStash(TM). That shit'll **** a DUmbass up, and they don't have that many brain cells left in the first place.
