Ayotte pens op-ed supporting Romney-Ryan


Kelly Ayotte, who was considered a top tier vice-presidential possibility, endorses the Mitt Romney-Paul Ryan ticket in Friday opinion piece for The New Hampshire Union-Leader.

Last Saturday, Gov. Romney chose Congressman Paul Ryan of Wisconsin to be his vice presidential running mate. Together, they will be America’s Comeback Team. Their combined experience makes them just the ticket to get our economy moving again. And in the Live Free or Die State, these two proven leaders share our values.

She then praises Romney and Ryan's agenda, and spends the balance of the piece attacking Barack Obama on jobs and spending.

The timing isn't coincidental. Mitt and Paul will pay a visit to her state on Monday for a joint townhall.
