Here is what really happens now that Mitt Romney picks Rep. Paul Ryan as his running mate: Romney gives the hardliners in his party, and especially its Obama-hating fringes, the candidate they really want.
This is Ryan’s party, not Romney’s. The Republicans never wanted Romney, it’s why everybody except Dwight Eisenhower became a front-runner in the early innings of this campaign. No matter how Tea Party tough Romney tried to talk, they could never forget the moderate Romney was as governor of Massachusetts.
So at a time when the American people hate Congress more than at any other time in the country’s history, Romney goes to the House of Representatives and gets Ryan. You know why Chris Christie, populist governor, would have been a better choice than Ryan?
Because almost anybody would have been.
