A little research tells me that Senator Portman should not get a second term in the Senate. Portman first went to the Senate in January of 2011 and already the Cleveland Tea Party is concerned about his position on ratifying the LOST:

Senator Rob Portman is "Lost" on LOST
Cleveland Tea Party Patriots: Senator Rob Portman is "Lost" on LOST
If anything, Portman is a Washington insider although he is acceptably conservative on a few politically advantageous domestic issues. His foreign policy positions are a lot shakier. Shaky enough to prompt a little research.
Sad to report, I could not find out where Portman stands on US membership in the UN. In all of his years in the House of Representatives he never signed on as a co-sponsor of HR 1146. That indicates he is a New World Order guy, and it explains his reluctance to come out against the LOST. That’s an important factor for voters in the general election when they look at a ticket containing a vice president whose claim to fame is foreign policy expertise.
Senator Rubio is no bargain either:

Reform ain’t withdrawal.
In truth, reform is one of the dirtiest words in a politician's dictionary because reform is always a fallback position until things cool off. Anybody who wants to reform the United Nations is either a fool or a con artist. I do not know if Thomas Sowell coined this phrase, but it sure applies to Rubio:
Thomas Sowell: Playing with words
In addition to Rubio’s other flaws, I’ve noticed that he is a slick fast-talker; a prime requisite for politicians cum con artist.
Bottom line: Pronunciation is the only thing I can see separating SENATORS Portman and Rubio on foreign policy; so:

Sens. Rob Portman ( R-Ohio) and Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) are showcasing their foreign-policy credentials at a critical juncture in Mitt Romney’s search for a running mate.
