Won't happen. From The Washington Times: "Urged at a town hall meeting Tuesday to consider Rep. Allen West as his vice presidential pick, presumptive GOP nominee Mitt Romney said he's open to different ideas as he weighs his running mate choice."
More: "'We need a fighter out there. I've been listening to Allen West talk, he'd make a great vice president. He's a fighter and that's what we want," the man said, sparking one of the louder ovations from the crowd."
The article continues about Rep. West as potential veep: "Mr. West, an Iraq War veteran, has emerged as a favorite among some branches of the tea party movement. Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, the party's 2008 vice presidential nominee, and former Godfather Pizza CEO Herman Cain, who led the GOP primary race earlier this year before exiting the race, are among those who have suggested Mr. West as a potential running mate."
