I'm floating Cornyn and Kyl myself..
McCain is toast... Pawlenty is a big unknown.
Arizona and Texas are in the bag, we get no electoral advantage from Cornyn or Kyl on the ticket.
Pawlenty will have served six years as Governor by 2008, which makes him as much an "unknown" as George W. Bush was in 2000.
"McCain is toast... Pawlenty is a big unknown."
Pawlenty won't be "a big unknown" for long. He's quite well known among the GOP leadership as an up-and-coming star.
Gulliani campained for Pawlenty last week. Maybe those two could hook up?
Or maybe Pawlenty could run for prez himself?
