(19,458 posts)That is starting to creep into my mind... are THEY the ones pushing the editorials and the "rumors" that Ryan be on the top of the ticket??
Is Romney being stabbed in the back by the Koch Bros after taking Ryan on for cash??? Think about it.. he takes on Ryan, even though everyone around him said he shouldn't. This comes out that the Koch Bros (and I bet Sheldon Adelman which is why Ryan went to see him almost immediately,) paid off Romney to get Ryan on board. NOW.. "conservatives" are pushing to flip the ticket. And Romney seems to be caught with his pants down repeatedly.
Reminds me of the story about the scorpion and the turtle... where the turtle agrees to transport the scorpion across the river, just as they're both near the other side, the scorpion stings him. And the turtle is incredulous and asks him why.. the scorpion said "this is what I do, I'm a scorpion. why did you trust me?"
Maybe Romney is just a VESSEL for Ryan via Koch and Adelman....
