MILWAUKEE, Wis. - Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett is weighing in on the announcement that Wisconsin Congressman Paul Ryan is now Mitt Romney's running mate.

Barrett held a news conference Saturday following Romney's announcment in which Barrett tried to compare the Romney-Ryan ticket to some unpopular days in American politics.

Barrett says it is clear that Romney is embracing Ryan's economic philosophy which Barrett says goes right back to former president George Bush.
