Romney/Petraeus 2012?
Drudge has the exclusive report:
President Obama whispered to a top fundraiser this week that he believes GOP presidential hopeful Mitt Romney wants to name Gen. David Petraeus to the VP slot!
“The president wasn’t joking,” the insider explains to the DRUDGE REPORT.
A Petraeus drama has been quietly building behind the scenes.
Romney is believed to have secretly met with the four-star general in New Hampshire.
The pick could be a shrewd Romney choice. A cross-party pull. The Obama administration hailed Petraeus as one of history’s greatest military strategists. Petraeus was unanimously confirmed as the Director of the CIA by the US Senate 94-0.
But Petraeus has categorically asserted that he has NO political ambitions. And Team Obama stands prepared to tie one of their own to “Bush wars.” A Petraeus pick could been seen as simply shuffling the decks of power in DC.
What do you think? Would the decorated General be an ideal VP pick?

david pretaus is no stormin’ normon. Fortunately, I highly doubt his name is on romney’s vp list, let alone the short list.
At this point, let’s all just sit tight and wait for the convention — the true VP pick will be known in due time.
But as for General Petraeus — I’ve thought for a long time that he’d be an incredible VP pick. But almost too good — he might be more valuable staying right where he’s at as the CIA director. But only time will tell! :-)
any body but is not Rob Port man, there must be Rick Perry, Mike Huckabee, Christ Christie, Rubio and Jeb Bush.
Yes, like Obama knows all. Right.
Anything to keep the eye off the ball——-> economy and jobs. “Don’t look at my record. Look at………who Romney’s going to pick for VP!” “Squirrel!”
Yeah, right, Obama knows s%$#.
Drudge can be outrageous sometimes, though. One thing i want Gov Romney campaign staffs to learn from Drudge is that they need to get one- on-one tutotrial with Drudge staff how to response issues in one-line statatment.
Most of the time, Gov Romney’s response on the issues are long explanations. Com’n we’re living the end of civilization tweeter age, also people attention span is short :-) I’m a radio listener (don’t watch tv, hate tv). It is very frustrating listening Gov Romney’s response on many issues on the radio compare to Obama camps. First, grab the attention and get to the details, please. Take a lesson from Gov Sununu, too!
Gov Romney/Candi!!!
