Looking at the Paul Ryan choice (someone whom I sheepishly admit I know very little about) after some research, I am appalled by the choice. Not that I had any intention of voting for Romney anyway, but if Romney could have made a choice that intentionally sank his chances, this would be it. If everything I've read is true, then the majority of Americans would get an old fashioned lesson in deprivation while the wealthy and the military industrial complex rolled merrily along. And that is where my problem lies....
I'm all for cutting the budget anywhere we can, but if the cuts don't begin with our foreign militarism and ensuring that the wealthy have a part in being the solution to our budget woes, then I can't get behind that.
If we end the wars, bring the troops home and eliminate the ridiculous corporate welfare that sends money to insanely wealthy agribusinesses, oil companies and wall street banks and then we need to do more, then lets do it but first things first...
Personally, I think the Republican party WANTS to lose this election. I think they will get their wish.
