Paul Ryan is so confident of victory, he's running ads for his House seat!

Politico:

Paul Ryan is set to air ads in his Wisconsin House district as part of a re-election effort he hasn't really been waging, the AP reports.

Under state law, Ryan is able to make a play for another term and the vice presidency, which is why he can air the ads which, as the AP notes, go up the same week that the Mitt Romney campaign ads start in the state.

There are two possibilities on the strategy - one is that Ryan is hedging his bets in case the ticket doesn't win in November. The other is that it's a way to spend extra ad dollars that could be helpful to the ticket, but which aren't usable for a presidential run.

4. Imagine an employer that would let you look for a job fulltime for 6 months

and if it didn't work out you could just keep the one you had for another 6 years.
