And no AA has ever been reelected.

BTW, as long as I am (indirectly) marveling at a choice between an AA & a Mormon, have we ever had two Catholics running for VP?

No, because the Republican party has yet to run a Catholic for President. Ponder that!

In case it was not clear in my post, I was referring to the fact that Paul & Joe are both Catholics, and I was wondering whether that has happened before. I just Googled and it looks like it has not, although we had one each in '64, '68. and '72. Since then, only Kerry is mentioned in my source (http://www.religioustolerance.org/rcc_poli1.htm), but it seems to overlook Biden, so I'm not sure it's exhaustive.

Biden is a fake catholic like pelosi and the entire msnbc crew.

Every time I think I'm raising my kids in the most educated, intellectually-advanced region of the country, I can come here to the DCUM political forum and remind myself that ain't sayin' much at all.

According to the bishops, the Ryan Plan violates catholic principles.

I agree with this...

Paul Ryan is just so very, very creepy! Romney less so, but still reminds me of some sort of vacant, alien being.
Although, having said that, Joe Biden is certainly lacking in the looks department....

Obama looks like a vampire and is every bit as cold and introverted as a public figure can be. Romney is bland but much better looking. Ryan vs plugs borders on sad looks wise brains wise and personality wise.

First of all: Romney is more attractive than Obama? I disagree with you there. Not that Romney isn't okay-looking, but still.

Second, along the same facetious lines, doesn't Obama's fantastic singing voice (as opposed to Romney's not-so-great voice) count for something? Not that he sings that often, of course, but I suspect a resonant voice carries more impact than people realize.

Sad is that you think any of this is important.

Romney has that irritating, rich guy voice. Ryan looks corpse pale white.

Ryan looks like a creepy, misogynistic version of Phil from Modern Family. Now if we're talking attractive politicians, whoever represents NM-1 is quite the looker...
