From what I have heard, Williams is right and boring white guy will be exactly what he picks. Romney will be taking a very safe choice. Bold he is not.
But why would the color matter? Is someone automatically less boring if they are not white? This is what promotes racism in this country. Is the person qualified? That is all that should matter.

I don't think they're suggesting that non-whites are necessarily less boring than whites. (Of course that's the stereotype) But in this case, when the media report/speculate that Romney is looking for a "boring white guy", I think they mean just that. i.e., no Condi Rice's, no Marco Rubio's; but no Chris Christie's either.
In other words, "a BORING white guy".
It's a political strategy. Time will tell if it was a good one or not.
