    The GOP candidate for VP lost with Rommey, but still won his seat in Congress back in his home state of Wisconsin.
    I didn't know he could run for two offices at the same time. Sounds somewhat illegal to me.

    Wisconsin allows it, which is most likely why he accepted the veep nod in the first place.

    And similar, if not quite the same...Sarah (can't spell her name right) Palin did not have to give up being governor of Alaska when she ran for veep. Instead she quit a while later.

    But I had the same reaction. I would have been really annoyed if I was his opponent and he had become veep. I am sure the governor of Wisconsin would have gotten to name his replacment to the House instead of it going to his opponent.

    You can walk for office, they usually don't move, unless you live in California?

    Love it!!! I often wonder where people come up with these very appropriate pics, cartoons, sayings, etc. I guess my mind isn't creative enough to think any of these up.
