Driving Mr. Ryan

It will be hard to beat Curt Myers for most interesting "What did you do this summer?" story at Union College -- the sophomore secretly drove Paul Ryan to a meeting with Mitt Romney ahead of Ryan's selection as Romney's running mate. Myers' mother is a key Romney aide and the meet was at their family's house in Brookline, Massachusetts in early August. [Politico] [Buzzfeed] [via @UnionCollegeNY via @JoshPetri]

Hope Myers' Mom does not ever need Medicare and that her Brookline house has been paid for! And that Curtis doesn't have any student loans! Those are Ryan people!

Just wondering - did Romney have Myers drive the car from the rooftop?

Your opinion on bagel toasting is what makes me confidant that you are legit.
