CHICAGO-(JE)-MITT ROMNEY CHOICE FOR VICE PRESIDENT IS BEING VIEW AS A DISASTER. Not unlike John McCann's “bad” choice of Sarah Palin (Ryan Is Romney's Sarah Palin) or George McGovern's choice for his vice president in 1972, Thomas Francis Eagleton (Thomas Eagleton's Mental Health) Romney just established that his first major decision was seriously flawed. Ryan 42, wants to “gut” Medicare as we known by turning into a “voucher” system shifting thousands of dollars in health care costs to seniors. “Ryan’s plan would gradually increase the Medicare eligibility age to 67. This phased-in increase in the eligibility age would start in 2023.Ryan’s proposal would do away with Medicare’s open-ended payments for those born in 1958 and later, (that is, people who turn 65 in 2023 or later).Instead, beginning in 2023, people in Medicare would be given a choice of private plans competing alongside the traditional fee-for-service option.” According to Professor of Political Science Harold Goldenshalf, “Romney's choice of Ryan may have been a good business decision but a bad political one and will cost him the 2012 election.”
