I know, how can there be either one in this day and age?
But hey, I hope that's who he goes with. The more wing-ding, the better, especially a douchenozzle fundie like DuhMint.

Romney has adopted so many far right wing positions, bringing on Jim DeMint as his VP is bound to make Romney look more moderate just by comparison!
