Republicans, would you like to see Ron Paul as a part of the Romney administration if Mitt were to win?

It's fairly common knowledge that Mitt Romney seems to be the frontrunner in for Republicans in the showdown with Obama this November. Many are predicting a close election. Recently, there has been rumor that Ron Paul is secretly teaming up with Romney and the two have some sort of deal or mutual agreement in place. It's been reported that in the Arizona debates last week, Paul criticized Santorum and Gingrich a combined 39 times and Romney just once. If there's a Romney/ Paul alliance right now, the assumption is that Paul has been promised a spot in Romney's cabinet or somewhere in his administration if Romney is to win the presidency.

Personally, I'm a fan of this. I like Ron Paul's strict adherence to the Constitution and his fiscal conservatism. I think he'd be a great voice at the highest levels of the federal government in a Republican administration. He doesn't have a realistic shot at winning, and I think his campaign knows this, so this (if it's true) is a shrewd move on his part and good for Republicans everywhere. The promise of Ron Paul as a prominent member of the Romney administration will sway some of the Paul base into the Romney camp, in addition to solidifying the perception of a Romney presidency placing a high value on fiscal responsibility and budget soundness.

What do you think of this possible development?
