Asserts the conservative Republican Congressman from South Carolina: "In an interview with POLITICO on Tuesday, Scott said his fellow freshmen in the House were thrilled with the choice, settling any doubts that Mitt Romney was supportive of their conservative agenda. 'I believe that the selection of Paul Ryan actually brought the base together. It answered all the questions we had before the convention started, which is really good news for the ticket,' Scott said."
More: "Scott, who also called Romney 'a true conservative,' said a Romney-Ryan ticket 'reaffirms the fact that the position and the plan that we had in the House for creating jobs in America is a real plan.' 'It simply says that the Path to Prosperity, that Ryan was the chief architect of, has real substance in it and it gives us an opportunity to not only win as a party but to win as a country,' he said."
