Romney Assessing VP Candidates on 6-State Tour

HeadlineJun 19, 2012

Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney visited Wisconsin on Monday as part of a six-state bus tour. Romney’s campaign has used the jaunt to assess a number of prospective vice-presidential nominees, including Wisconsin Rep. Paul Ryan. On Monday, Romney appeared with Ryan, as well as Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker, on the heels of Walker’s recall victory two weeks ago. Speaking to supporters, Romney predicted he will carry Wisconsin on Election Day.

Mitt Romney: “I’ll tell you, I think President Obama had just put this in his column. He just assumed from the very beginning Wisconsin was going to be his. But you know what? We’re going to win Wisconsin, and we’re going to get the White House.”
