• Mitt Romney Named John McCain's Veep by Karl Rove

    Karl Rove — who, for some reason, keeps on getting to give his wizened opinion despite it being consistently less than wise — thinks that John McCain could do a lot worse than pick the personality-disabled Mitt Romney as his running mate

    "Romney is already vetted by the media, strong executive experience both in business and in government, has an interesting story to tell with saving the U.S. Olympics, and also helps McCain deal with the economy, because he can speak with the economy with a fluency that McCain doesn't have," Rove told "Fox News Sunday."

    Mitt Romney can speak with the economy?! That's amazing!

    Actually, now that I think about it, it kinda makes sense. It's probably like the way that R2-D2 can plug his little probe into any machine or computer in the galaxy and talk it into doing whatever Luke Skywalker asks him to do.

    If that's the case, then McCain would be an idiot not to name him as his running mate.

    But Rove, a FOX News analyst, added that Romney is not without flaws. "He's been a little uneven in his performance," Rove said.

    Yeah, that's true, but you can't really blame that on Romney. That's more his programmer's fault. He probably just needs an update on his operating system.
