NBC News is confirming that Congressman Paul Ryan will be announced as the VP pick at 9:00am in Norfolk, VA. Now we can have that discussion about getting rid of those pesky socialist programs like Medicare and Social Security.

If you hate Medicare, you'll love Paul Ryan.

Seems like a shot in the foot for the Romney campaign. Ryan does look like someone who could run the US as President unlike say Sarah Palin, Joe Biden, Dick Cheney, and a number of other people. There was Chester Arthur, however, who looked like a lackey of the machine politics of the 1870s and 1880s when he was VP. Then, he became a force to be reckoned with when he became President after the assassination attempt and then death of James Garfield.

I say bring it on.

Paul Ryan is an outstanding pick.

The Obama cheerleaders in the media are already attacking him because of the budget he proposed last year. Well, let's have at it. Let's have a fight over substance. And let's expose Obama for the destructive leftist he is, and Biden for the weak dufus he is.

"When Mitt Romney taps Rep. Paul Ryan to be his running mate on Saturday, he is picking someone who has already tangled toe-to-toe with President Obama on several occasions, and is prepared for the bruising battle ahead.

Indeed, Mr. Obama has built up plenty of bad blood with Mr. Ryan, calling him the architect of “social Darwinism” earlier this year, stemming from the Wisconsin Republican’s budget plan.

And last year Mr. Obama invited Mr. Ryan to sit in the front row of a budget speech as the president pointedly called his budget blueprint not “serious” — then a day later pointedly blasted Mr. Ryan to campaign donors in Chicago, saying he’s “the same guy that voted for two wars that were unpaid for, voted for the Bush tax cuts that were unpaid for, voted for the prescription drug bill that cost as much as my health care bill — but wasn’t paid for. So it’s not on the level. And we’ve got to keep on, you know, keep on shining a light on that.”

After one of those broadsides, Mr. Ryan fired back, saying he had hoped for more out of the president.

“Rather than building bridges, he’s poisoning wells,” the usually mild-mannered Mr. Ryan said. “Exploiting people’s emotions of fear, envy and anxiety is not hope; it’s not change. It’s partisanship. We don’t need partisanship. We don’t need demagoguery. We need solutions. And we don’t need to keep punting to other people to make tough decisions.”

VP Joe Biden was formerly Chairman of the Foreign Relations Committee for many years, and before that he was Chairman of the Judiciary Committee. Where is Congressman Paul Ryan's foreign relations experience? Mitt Romney needs all the help he can get in that regard, as became apparent on his recent overseas trip.

We're thinking alike this morning. I see this post of yours after I started a thread about this same video showing Ryan eviscerating ObamaCare to the solemn face of Obama and the dufus smirk of Biden.

This will be an interesting number of months coming.

This could bring Florida completely to Obama. The good possibility of being able to play up the Medicare angle has David Axelrod jumping up and down with glee.

Without Florida, Romney loses.

Romney doesn't lose Florida with Ryan as VP pick. Romney would win Florida no matter who he picked as a running mate but with Ryan Florida definitely goes RED. Ohio is still a toss up.

Looks like Romney Advisor's went for "deficit reduction" as a main issue for which Ryan is "King" in that parade and with Romney the "business man" looks very promising for the GOP on these two issues. Obama/Bidden are both in La La land when it comes to the deficit and the economy. I am a bit surprised that the announcement was made on a Saturday----usually not a big news day.
