The Ticket Obama Fears Most

http://www.americanthinker.com/2011/08/ ... _most.html

If Senator Rubio becomes the running mate of Governor Perry, which I believe is increasingly likely, President Obama could face his worst electoral nightmare. At the outset, both men are excellent campaigners -- articulate, likeable, attractive, and accustomed to winning elections in the diverse and large populations of Texas and Florida. Unlike Republican nominees since Reagan, Rick Perry knows how to work crowds. Perry, like Rubio, has never lost a political race. Although it is a relatively small section of his resume, his time successfully selling Bible reference books door-to-door may be as important as background in running for president.

Both Perry and Rubio have life stories which demonstrate that the American Dream really works. Perry grew up on a cotton tenant farm in the middle of nowhere and worked hard up every step in his path to success. Rubio's parents worked in menial jobs so that their son could have a better life. Imagine Rubio campaigning in Las Vegas, where his parents worked like so many Hispanics today, cleaning rooms and tending bars. The greatest impact of these life stories is that the Republican ticket could say just how poor people need not stay poor if government gets out of the way.

Christy/Rubio ....if only.

I made a Rubio thread a while back and couldn't get a lib to tear him down...that would be a challenge.

America is a country which produces citizens who will cross the ocean to fight for democracy but won't cross the street to vote.

Unless the dems pay them or pull them out of their houses and bus them to the polls....or if ACORN works it's "magic".

God forbid we should help people get to the polls.

Boy those Republicans are racial.....

Now that you mention it, you never heard about Republicans trying to help black or Hispanic people get to the polls. Why is that?

because the majority is Democrats. But the other side to this is when both parties are so damn corrupt when it comes to voting, that it should be simple, bring proof that you are an AMERICAN CITIZEN legally, then we can eliminate a bunch of the BS that happens.

I think Rubio is a more certain VP choice than any of the presidential picks being offered by the GOP.

People who actually WANT to vote or KNOW why they are voting should get help getting there if they need it.

If Republicans had some group like ACORN that committed voter fraud in order to elect their guy, it would actually make it to your precious and worthless mainstream media.
