WASHINGTON -- Mitt Romney doesn't yet know if he'll win the Republican bid for president, but he's already thinking of the type of running mate he'd choose: someone like Dick Cheney.

At a town hall meeting in Arizona on Wednesday, an attendee asked Romney if he would pick a Tea Party member as his vice presidential nominee.

Romney didn't directly answer but instead talked about the virtues of Cheney, who served as President George W. Bush's vice president and became known as "Darth Vader" during his time in office.

“I think it was last weekend, I was watching C-SPAN, and I saw Vice President Dick Cheney, and he was being asked questions about a whole host of issues -- following 9/11, the affairs in various countries in the world,” Romney said. “And I listened to him speak and said whether you agree or disagree with him, this is a man of wisdom and judgment, and he could have been president of the United States. That's the kind of person I’d like to have -- a person of wisdom and judgment."

4. This is Romney's shout out to the BFEE saying...

"I'm perfectly willing to be a puppet for you and let you put one of your guys in the second spot on the ticket if you'll just steal the election for me!"

5. He scares me as much as the rest of

the republicans do. Who in their right mind would want Cheney in government ever again.

9. That's about the worst thing I've ever heard Mitt say. But

probably the best thing he could say to get himself the nomination. However, I'll bet he turned a lot of Indies off.
