Which candidate should be the Republican nominee?

[SWTXBelle]

- I have never understood why a vice presidential pick might be the deciding factor for a voter. Well, I could understand calling into question a candidate's decision making ability if they chose an undesirable v.p. (cough - McCain - cough) but to decide yes, I'll vote for a candidate I don't really like because I like his/her v.p. pick? Are you hoping the presidential candidate will join the choir invisible shortly after being sworn in? So often it seems like obvious pandering, which I find insulting.
