Kyl of AZ for Vice President

http://spectator.org/archives/2012/05/25/age-and-kyl

The article is a lovely summary of why Jon Kyl simply cannot be allowed to fail to stand for re-election and disappear out of the Senate into the gloom of retirement or political obscurity.  He may be the best candidate for VP.  Gingrich is a gadfly who would be hampered by the title, and would serve the nation better without the harness of a title.  Santorum would never fit into the Romney administration.  The other candidates for the Republican nomination fell by the wayside a long time ago because they didn't fit.

The only possible challenger for VP is Rand Paul, and it seems so appropriate that he joined the Senate two years ago, and therefore has had enough time to figure out the system and make his dominance known... just in time to step into Sen. Kyl's shoes while Kyl takes that step into the Executive Branch...?  It's far too early to let Rand Paul out of the Senate, where he can do so much good work, for a brief term as VP.  There is no one clearly available to step into Sen. Paul's seat, either.

So let's push Kyl for VP, shall we?
