I don't think so. Almost everyone agrees Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) will be on the ultimate Republican presidential nominee's short list for vice president and Stephen Moore says his contacts in Mitt Romney's campaign are boasting: "Doesn't a Romney-Rubio ticket sound great?" Said one senior Romney advisor: "We think that could be a dream ticket." http://politicalwire.com/archives/2011/06/23/romney-rubio_in_2012.html Bill Maher on Rick Perry: "And finally New Rule, if you think the Republican presidential candidates can't possibly get any lamer, then you haven't met the new Republican flavor of the month, Rick Perry. If you're not familiar with Rick, he took over as governor of Texas from George W. Bush, who's now referred to as 'the smart one.' "Rick carries a gun even when he's jogging. He wears cowboy boots with a suit, and the boots say, "come and take it", which sounds kind of gay to me. "And he threw such a tantrum when Obama won, he actually talked about Texas seceding from the union, because that's what America needs; a President of the United States who's not really sold on the whole 'United States' concept. http://videocafe.crooksandliars.com/heather/new-rule-if-you-thought-current-gop-field
