-- it Julie Banderas joins us now -- set to discuss the implications of the GOP candidate.

Does or does not choose a Florida senator Marco Rubio as his running -- a big deal right it is a big deal I mean but right now according to -- New York Times he has to people -- front runners for the vice presidential nominee as the GOP likely presidential nominee Mitt Romney.

Is in the -- in the process of deciding who would be the best fit for him to to go up against President Obama.

According to this report if it is accurate it would mean that the chances of a lot Tino.

Running for the Republican vice presidential ticket I would essentially be a shot in the dark at friends of Romney are saying that he is apparently decided.

-- on -- -- of two people former Minnesota governor Tim Pawlenty.

Or US senator Bob Portman Rob Portman -- rather of Ohio an announcement on this decision is supposed to be coming in.

As soon as this week possibly not choosing plenty -- Portman means two things.

That two nationally prominent Latino conservatives would no longer have a shot at the White House the most likely candidates would have been US senator mark a -- rubio of Florida.

And governor Susanna Martinez of New Mexico.

Turning came -- because back when.

Mitt Romney's wife had said that that a woman should take that -- and and the vice presidential pick.

Sure her name was circled about -- and she -- some not so right -- regarding immigration about Mitt Romney so that sort of ruled her out of people were really banking on Marco Rubio so a lot of people.

Are are are pretty disappointed at this news if that's indeed true.

There are reports that have casting doubts on whether Romney has indeed chosen -- are running mate.

He says that nobody's gonna notice except for him his -- or that vice presidential candidate so not to jump to any conclusions.

For many though the big disappointment for rubio is this -- is -- conservative he's been closely tied to the Tea Party.

Something that that Romney would would gain by by having that kind of support.

He's often been out to appear at several different.

Campaign events.

Touting Romney is the best choice for president he could also help Romney appeal to Latino voters that is a key.

Plus for him.

Asked for plenty this is a conservative who could bring of -- evangelical evangelical vote which is another big one also could help from the state of Ohio which is -- -- the -- -- state.

For him so plenty could be -- huge push there.

But again at Ronnie has warned to people you know not to take rumors about his vice presidential selection too seriously says.

Only he and his advisor to the fox about his running mate choice so if indeed this rumor is true in the New York Times.

Report is correct we could learn as early as this week.

As to who he will be picking and even if the report is inaccurate perhaps we still might learn as early this media -- we might be -- -- that would just spurs certainly -- narrative from.

The whole idea acts that documents not being.

More -- into -- you know it's also interesting too is that Portman the reason Portman would also be a good pick is because.

Romney is trying to defeat this whole elitist status race and Portman about -- and Evans -- -- -- -- exactly Democrats driver Patrick driver yeah so I mean he wants to try to get a little bit to Disney collar middle class yet I don't necessarily think that a vice presidential pick who's.

Father was a truck drivers going to deter from the fact that Mitt Romney has so much money.

But that is something that's being -- in -- up until.
