My Take on the Veepstakes

Here is my qualitative take on the veepstakes. My analysis is based on my interpretation of what I see and hear from fellow conservatives. Because it is based on my insights and not on polling and some numerical analysis I have categorized it as qualitative.

This is the sum of my analysis in which I will categorize each prospective candidate based on the reaction I imagine conservatives and Republicans will have if they are announced as the Vice Presidential candidate.

The candidates listed are based on Google’s Veepstake (http://www.google.com/elections/ed/us/veepstakes)

List is alphabetical by last name:

Kelly Ayotte – “Who is he or is it she?”

Chris Christie – “Dammit, well at least he is fearless”

Luis Fortuno – “Who? …. It that allowed?”

Bobby Jindal – “Yeah…OK that will work”

Bob McDonald – “Who? Never heard of him”

Tim Pawlenty – “@#$%, you screwed the pooch on this one Mitt”

Rob Portman – “I heard his name but I don’t know anything about him”

Marco Rubio – “Thank God!”

Paul Ryan – “Yeah…OK that’s not bad it will work, and Obama HATES him which is a side benefit”

John Thune – “Yeah OK whatever”

Marco Rubio: "This is a choice between a guy who has no idea what he's d...

Dang I love Marco. If Mitt does not tap him for Veep then he is making a mistake

UPDATE: ITS A HOAX: Chicago Alderman Sending Letter's To Businesses To Ensure they Meet "Chicago Values"

UPDATE:

It appears that the letter was actually sent to Mr Shalack but that is was not actually send by the Alderman therefore it is a HOAX! People please do not do this type of thing, it only makes things worse.

In a shocking display of fascistic behavior, Chicago's 1st Ward Alderman Joe Moreno has been sending out the following letter to businesses. This is not just morally, ethically... OK it is wrong in every possible way. This can not be a serious letter. My source for this letter has not verified its veracity but if it proves to be authentic then action need to be taken to impeach or recall or whatever the process is in Chicago to remove this man from office. This is as un-American as it gets.

I have sent an email to the Alderman's office asking for validation and additional information, I am still waiting on a response.

Part of me thinks this is a HOAX given that I can not find any additional information about it online. PLEASE KEEP THAT IS MIND.
