Ryan might be a good pick for Romney. He could help him win Wisconsin which Romney desperately needs if he is going to win the election and he fits the theme of focusing on the economy.

He is a lightning rod of sorts for the left so you know Obama will attack him and likely try to make him out as one of the guys who helped destroy the economy in the first place.

In the end, VP candidates rarely have much positive impact beyond delivering their home state, but as we saw with Palin they can hurt you.

Picking Ryan won't guarantee Romney a victory, he still has a huge, almost overwhelming uphill battle ahead of him.
