Just sunk in that it's the Blunt RUBIO amendment

[elfin]

I think Rubio has taken himself off the VP list with this move, unless Santorum is successful.

Willard will not want discuss social issues if he gets the nod, in fear of COMPLETELY alienating women.

Trying to frame it as a " religious or moral" issue is a no go.

1. Send a link, please. Not sure what you mean by this. Was the amendment co-sponsored by

Rubio? Is that it?

2. Yes, that is what I have read in many references

Here is one

3. You have a big assumption here...

...That Romney will evenly be socially aware that he is alienating women. That might be too subtle for a sociopath to pick up on.

4. Forgive my glass-half-full nature

but I think you underestimate the electorate.

5. I think you're right -- it's now an embarrassment to Willard

And he has way too many of them to want to call attention to any of his whoppers!
