If Ryan is the running mate, GOP had better hope for very, very, very low turnout among under-55s.' @davidfrum via TweetDeck And over-55s too. They don't want to be the last generation with Medicare.

9:11 PM PT: Huffington Post is reporting that it's Ryan:
Mitt Romney will announce Rep. Paul Ryan (R-Wis.) as his running mate on Saturday, according to two sources with knowledge of the decision.9:13 PM PT: Dem operative emails: "I am now drafting releases in every congressional race Iâ''m on about the ryan budget."
Ryan is a bold pick who will energize the Republican Party, but putting him on the ticket is fraught with risk and instantly puts Ryan's budget plan front and center in the 2012 campaign.
