Mitt Romney Picks Paul Ryan As VP Running Mate

Truth rating: 10

Mitt Romney has picked Paul Ryan, the 42-year-old Wisconsin congressman, as his running mate and the Republican vice presidential candidate.

The news was announced in an overnight message from Romney’s camp to the media, with the official introduction expected to happen at an event in Norfolk, Virginia on Saturday morning.

Ryan’s selection ends months of speculation about who will join Romney, the presumptive Republican presidential nominee, in the campaign against President Obama and Joe Biden.

The seven-term U.S. Representative currently serves as the chair of the House Budget Committee and has famously advocated for a spending plan at odds with Obama’s.

Ryan married Janna Little in 2000.

The couple has three children.

    Another one that is a advocate for the rich. Romney and Ryan are two peas in a pod.

  • Chloe

    OH HELL NO! This extremist will seriously split the world we will be the super rich and the poor. We all know Mitt and Ryan will do anything for the rich people that have money screw the rest of us.

  • Claire

    LOL Chloe! Thank you for saying everything I believe in about these two….forget about the middle class….that won’t happen again! And the rest of us will have to hit the road straight into THE POOR HOUSE!

    his “budget” was insane. Goes right along with Romney’s tax plan. This seems like a weird choice to me… it’s not going to win over people on the fence, he’s too extreme.

  • Randomperson

    Are you all insane! Yes, were all going to be poor! Hell, I already am! But, the point is that Mitt is going to get America back to where it needs to be! Did everyone forget that rich people give us jobs? And isn’t America based on making a name for yourself. Obama wants us all to be poor, and have nothing like third world countries. He wants us to blame rich people for having money, and wants us to believe that they need to give their earnings to us. I don’t want a handout I want to make my own money! I want a job, I want Obama to stop giving Illegals free money, food, scholarships, cars, and housing. Not only does it happen everyday but, he’s now trying to make it for 2 million illegals get to stay and vote! It’s bullspit! We don’t have enough jobs to go around, Obama rather blame past presidents than himself for his actions. It’s time to vote for change! A good change! Mitt is the right choice! They want to focus on AMERICA, not Illegals! We need help, their plan can work! VOTE MITT!

  • Janet

    This is the guy who wants to close the budget gap by cutting taxes for the rich, deny women their reproductive rights, and cut off Pell grants to millions of college students. He’s Sarah Palin on steroids.

    That is funny when you talking about Obama blaming past presidents when you are placing all the blame on the present one.The truth is all the past presidents and the currant one have all made their share of mistakes which have resulted in everything the country is going through now.Here is a prediction it doesn’t matter if Obama returns to office or Mitt wins office their are still going to be mistakes and people are still not going to satisfied.The truth of the matter is they are all politicians and they are going to say what they need to say in hopes of being elected but in reality none of them are going to stand up to their word because they know (and what we should know) they have limited power and can’t really do all the things they promise so basically they sell us dreams and we buy into it and they end up dropping us on out butts because they know they can’t and 9 times out of ten won’t deliver.So vote for whoever you want but when you put that kind of trust into man you will always get disappointed.
