(Newser) – Establishment Republicans shudder at the idea of Paul Ryan as Mitt Romney's runningmate: After all, as chair of the House Budget Committee, he has espoused controversial reforms to Medicare, and Beltway insiders fear choosing him would put the focus on those issues. In short, they believe "Ryan is too dangerous because he thinks politics is about things that matter." But Ryan's convictions are exactly why Romney should pick him, write the editors of the Wall Street Journal.
"Ryan is too dangerous because he thinks politics is about things that matter." I love it when Republicans say something that reveals their true priorities. Clearly it's not helping America. Stop focusing on "little things" like his record at Bain [which he claims qualifies him for the presidency but is afraid to talk about] or his taxes [which he is hiding from America to avoid being shamed].
Now that would be fun to watch Ryan leading Romney around on a leash and that budget of his will scare the skin off 80% of American voters.
