West: I’d be VP ‘if it was the right fit’

Rep. Allen West (R-Fla.) said Friday he would join the Republican ticket as a vice presidential nominee "if it was the right fit."

"The focus is, of course, being a good congressional representative,” West told CNN. “But if someone were to make that call to me, which I really doubt is ever going to happen, you would have to make sure that it is something that God would ordain for you, and you’d have to talk to your wife, my wife and my two daughters about. But we have always stepped up to the plate to serve our country. And if it’s the right fit, then I will do so.”
