Sen. Kelly Ayotte (wako-NH) seems to want to be Mitten's VP, too

WASHINGTON, D.C. -- Making her first appearance on NBC's Meet the Press on Sunday, Senator Kelly Ayotte, a New Hampshire Republican, said she is more ready to be president than Barack Obama was when he was a sitting senator.

"I have, some would say, better experience than Barack Obama had when he was a senator and ran” for president, Ayotte told David Gregory.

The freshman senator and former attorney general for New Hampshire, Ayotte said having served as the "chief law enforcement officer" of her state and on the Senate Armed Services Committee has given her that experience needed to be president – or perhaps vice president.

New Hampshire's junior senator has been discussed as a potential vice presidential pick for the presumptive Republican nominee, Mitt Romney. Asked whether she would "like to be on the ticket" with Romney in November, Ayotte didn't shut down the idea.

If that is true--wouldn't she also have more experience than Mitt Romney???

Dan Quayle said he had the same experience as John F. Kennedy.



"I knew Barack Obama, Barack Obama is a friend of mine. Senator, you're no Barack Obama."
