my guess for Romney VP: In the vein of a Dick Cheney type figure [View all]

who was right next door to make sure W did what he was told, my prediction is:

Charles Koch.

Let's face it, when W was elected, the emphasis was on starting wars and emptying the treasury. Cheney was made for that.
This time the emphasis will be on emptying the treasury and making life miserable for certain classes of people (anyone who makes less than $1million/year- unions - women)
Who could possibly be better than a Koch?

You are not under the impression that Romney has any input are you? Of course he doesn't. Norquist stated that many months ago.
Charles can sit right there and keep a tight rein on his stooge.
