This may be the best VP pick in my lifetime:

The following is a brief biography of Rep. Paul Ryan, selected to be Mitt Romney's running mate.
Political
* Currently serving seventh term as a member of Congress.
* Ryan was little known outside Janesville when he ran for
Congress in 1998 at age 28. He captured 57 percent of the vote.
* Ryan's first budget plan, which he called "Roadmap for
America's Future," was released in 2010.
* Early in his career as a representative to Congress, Ryan
held office hours in an old truck he converted into an office.
* Ryan was the legislative director for Sen. Sam Brownback
of Kansas, 1995-1997.


Personal
* Born and raised in the community of Janesville; Ryan is a
fifth-generation Wisconsin native.
* Ryan moonlighted on Capitol Hill as a waiter at the Tortilla Coast
restaurant and as a fitness trainer at Washington Sport and Health
Club.
* One of Ryan's summer jobs in college was as an Oscar Mayer
salesman in Minnesota, peddling turkey bacon and a new line
called "Lunchables" to supermarkets.
* Ryan worked as a marketing consultant for his family's construction business before being elected to Congress. The company -- Ryan Incorporated Central -- began as an earthmoving business created by his great-grandfather in 1884.
* Ryan's hobbies include hunting and fishing. He is a bowhunter and belongs to his hometown's archery association - the Janesville Bowmen.
* For fun, Ryan noodles catfish, catching them barehanded with a fist down their throats.
* Ryan listens to Rage Against the Machine and Led Zeppelin

In the political sense, this could read:

For fun, Ryan noodles Democrats, catching them barehanded with a fist down their throats

Ryan seems fine to me, but I really think the VP choice is overrated. Heck, even Beeho got elected choosing one of the stupidest idiots of all time.

I gotta say I would take the frikin shoe off of my foot and vote for it before I ever placed a vote for the current idiot in charge, My dog would make a better potus than BHO. I am tired of being lied to every time he opens his mouth. I am willing to trust someone unproven over this idiot that has already proven himself. I guess you can tell which way I am voting regardless of who is VP or not.

While I'm not really anti-war, this infographic is informative:

I need to do a little research, but I would not doubt that that graphic is completely false propaganda. There are at least three things on there that I have seen him adamantly oppose in debates. All I am saying is that you might fact check that one before you believe it any more than your average Obummer speech...

Well obviously.
