The blame is ultimately irrelevant to the problem. If things are going tits up in the next two years, it doesn't really matter whose watch it happened on. Everyone will get blame for it.

[Nadaka]

I almost want a republican in charge. We're looking at a lot of unavoidable disasters in the next few years... major climate change, further economic collapse, etc. It'd be terrible if these ended up being blamed on a supposed liberal.

What makes you think they won't blame it on liberals anyway?

[PTTG??]

A Dwarf:

Pros:
- Conservative values of Industry and Cupidity.
- Legendary Liar.
- Shows willingness to eat kittens, putting him on par with other outstanding republican VPs.

Cons:
- Needs alcohol to get through the working day.
- Prone to violent fits of rage.
- Short, a critical failing for the voting public.

In all seriousness though, a Ron Paul or Paul Ron Ryan VP would be interesting, and maybe even a smart move. It's either that, or they find a black woman republican- of which there's probably three or four- and nominate her.

They won't let Ron Paul anywhere near the establishment, for fear he'll run amok and go off the cue cards.

Yet they let Sarah Palin do it?

[nenjin]

Sarah Palin is a good conservative soldier. She may have a big mouth that she occasionally doesn't know when to keep shut, but she's not an independent actor to the degree Ron Paul is.

You're not going to hear Palin start deriding American military interests or our foreign policy (unless it's a pure-Obama policy.) Ron Paul, on the other hand, has far more to say about what's wrong with America in a general sense that he has to say about anything else.

I rather like Mirror Universe Obama.

Fluttershy (did I get that right?) and T-Pain get Honorable Mention.

[Karlito]

Rainbow Dash. But Fluttershy also has wings, so you get half-credit.

I'd probably vote for the sexy pirate, myself.

[Urist Imiknorris]

I'd vote for Romney/Benedict.

[RedKing]

I'd vote for Romney/Benedict.

If only because the GOP is against cloning and stem cells, so they'd be hard-pressed to come up with a Stormtrooper army.

[mainiac]

Clearly Romney/Romney is the only way to go.

MLP can't happen.  Friendship and magic both go against the GOP base.

-Your entire post-

A lot of my classmates went off to liberal arts collages, I knew back then that was a horrible idea for job security. I went to a technical school, I learned a trade, and I got a decent job after I got my certificate. Most of my high school classmates realized a bit to late that there isn't a whole lot you can do with an English degree, most of them are working in fast food joints, or gas stations. I'm thinking about getting a welding certificate just in case things go to shit, it never hurts to have a few practical, marketable skills.

What trade do you have?

suddenly, the average intelligence of the candidates went up sevenfold!

His intelligence was negative?

Now now, that would require the average intelligence of the rest of the group to be 0. We know carrots have an IQ of at least 2, and I'm sure we can agree that Gingrich et al aren't stupider than a carrot. As stupid *AS*, perhaps, but not stupider.

Check your math.  If Rick Santorum has an intelligence of 0 then removing him from an average only increases the average by a factor of 1/n where n is the number of candidates remaining.  I.E. removing him from an average of 4 candidates only increases the average to 133% of what it was before.  If removing him increases the intelligence by a factor of 7, that implies either that he has negative intelligence or that there are 21 Rick Santorums running for president.

Yes, picture that in your mind.  21 Rick Santorums running for president.

I'm picturing this as a literal race. Ben Hur style.

They won't let Ron Paul anywhere near the establishment, for fear he'll run armok and go off the cue cards.

Fixed that for you.

Clearly Romney/Romney is the only way to go.

Electronics, I mostly just find out why things don't work. Most of the work can be done visually, it's usually just a errant bit of solder or a broken component.
