Scott Walker to Mitt Romney: Pick Paul Ryan for VP

Wauwatosa, Wisc.

Wisconsin governor Scott Walker said this afternoon that he’d like to see Mitt Romney choose fellow Wisconsinite Paul Ryan as a vice presidential nominee.

“I grew up fifteen miles down the road from Paul Ryan. He’s a great friend of mine,” Walker said in an interview with THE WEEKLY STANDARD. “Despite the obvious bias on my part, I don’t think there’s anybody who could be a better pick–not just electorally but substantively–I don’t think there’ s a better pick than Paul Ryan out there.”
