I think he got some nice national (and international) coverage during the oil crisis. Having said that, however, I don't know enough about the other people being talked about, with the exception of Palin. And with her recent foray into unreality-reality tv (read camp-out) I am once again convinced that she is perhaps the most dangerous vp potential out there among those Romney might consider.

He's got the crisis management down, he's a rhodes scholar, plenty of experience in the public policy, and his parents are immigrants from india. Whats not to love? Romney-Jindal 2012 ftw it’s gotta be Governor Jindal. He’s got the crisis management down, he’s a rhodes scholar, plenty of experience in the public policy, and his parents are immigrants from india.

Both govenors before and both with a lot of experience. Both have important leadership abilities and qualities that can be useful in that position. I like Palin but she would be more helpful in rallying for the Republican cause by being the chairperson of the RNC. We need Rice back as secretary of state, intellegence and experience is what is needed there. I voted General Patreus but how about Mike Leavitt or Jon Huntsman.

If Romney's the nominee, he'll lose in a landslide without someone on the ticket to fire up the base. The folks at this site can denigrate Palin all they want, but the GOP's voting base loves her. Unfortunately for the Romney hot-stove-leaguers, she won't be running as scapegoat VP candidate for any more moderate lost causes anytime soon. And there's really no one else out there who can fulfill the same function. So, it doesn't matter. I’d say Palin.
