Convention Night (VP Speculation)

John McCain ^

ARLINGTON, VA -- Today, U.S. Senator John McCain's presidential campaign released its latest television ad, entitled "Convention Night." The ad features John McCain offering his congratulations to Barack Obama for receiving the nomination of the Democratic Party on this important day in American history. The ad will air on national cable and in key states.

Ok so here’s my take.

I’ve been thinking about this.

I really want Mitt to be the VP.

But after watching McCain’s Convention Night ad congratulating Obama I think it will be Palin.

McCain had a grin on his face when talking about Obama’s “historic” night.

What would be a more historic counter in McCain’s mind than picking Palin?

I want it to be Mitt.. and I still think thats a big possibility.

But I think McCain’s going for those Hillary voters.

JOHN MCCAIN:

Senator Obama, this is truly a good day for America.

Too often the achievements of our opponents go unnoticed. So I wanted to stop and say, congratulations.

How perfect that your nomination would come on this historic day. Tomorrow, we'll be back at it. But tonight Senator, job well done.

I'm John McCain and I approved this message.

I think this was a shot at Obama not picking Hillary!!!

To often the achievements of our opponents go unnoticed!!

Actually this AD just pointed out what we on FR have tried to tell the Republicans.

The Democrats let no act of random kindness go unpunished.

Instead of Jimmy Carters “Boy” being gracious, he resorted to the same old liberal tactics of trying to go for the juggler vein while his opponent was wishing him well.

Obama binBiden does not have the class to be president and neither do his classless airhead supporters.

I’d like it to be Palin. Does anyone know where she’s at tonight? Heading to Dayton?

I really really hope its Palin. It will trump these idiots who DARE to put this republic in jeopardy with Obama. McCain could pick NO better time than now to be a Maverick and put a strong conservative WOMAN on the ticket. One who would have a great shot at being the first woman president.

Please please PLEASE make it Palin! I just think that it would really stick a knife in the “diversity” mantra of the Democratic Party...

Yeah, I know. Heartbeat from the presidency, experience, debate, blah blah blah. Whatever. I want to see the anchors all melt down when the GOP nominates the first woman who will become VP. Just image what would happen to Olbermann/Estrich/Colmes/everybody when they try to squeal about it! They’ll self-destruct!

[ConservativeMan55]

I still think it was a veiled shot at Obama.

“To often the achievements of our opponents go unnoticed”

That’s about Obama not picking Hillary.

What a contrast!

John McCain is a cunning man: he anticipated Obama’s angry, whining acceptance speech and timed this ad to look like a decent human being, the polar opposite of the Democrat’s candidate.

[ConservativeMan55]

I’m speculating over here.

It’s either Romney or Palin.

I saw on the other thread Pawlenty says he’s not traveling to Ohio.

[dandelion]

WOW! I love you, Internets!!

[News Junkie]

That’s good news. It gets more and more interesting!

[gswilder]

How do we know Palin was on the plane?

Someone on another thread just said McCains staff in Dayton had just been told it’s Palin.

I hope it’s her. Bold move Maverick if true.

[ConservativeMan55]

LOL

So now Pawlenty's out apparently?

Other VP Thread

[ConservativeMan55]

I think she owns that plane

But I think McCain’s going for those Hillary voters.

I feel exactly the same way you do. That's why I think you're right!
