Romney Choice as Ryan Elevates Conservative Extremism Debate
George Will argues Romney’s selection of Paul Ryan marks a presidential move that shifts the GOP toward a more aggressive conservative stance. The piece contrasts Romney’s evolving positions on wind energy subsidies and Medicare reform with Obama’s rhetoric, citing Goldwater and King to frame extremists for liberty and justice. It notes Romney’s alignment with a Republican wing skeptical of government interventions and calls attention to the broader debate over entitlement reform and constitutional principles in the 2012 political moment.

Romney picks Ryan as running mate signals conservative governance
Romney names Wisconsin congressman Paul Ryan as his vice presidential pick, signaling a shift to economic and social conservatism. The choice aims to energize the campaign, anchor budget and tax policy, and tie Romney to Ryan's fiscal agenda while risking alignment with an unpopular House GOP majority and its Medicare and tax-cut proposals. Carl P. Leubsdorf notes the move reshapes the race's dynamic and Midwest appeal without boosting Romney's foreign policy stature.
