McCain is going to ask Thompson to be his veep. You know it. He has to find some way to shore up the base, and that will be his bone. "Hey, the number 2 is one of you, and I'm older than Grant".

Nonsense. He might want to but there’s no political adviser in the world is going to stand by and watch him run a “Grumpy Old Men” ticket - especially against Obama.

There is NO CHANCE Thompson will be on McCain’s ticket. Though I do think he’ll be offered a prominent cabinet post.

McCain’s VP will be a guy purposely chose to offset the angry old guy image he projects.

I think he is going to ask his Lindsey so he can “think” he will get the southern vote. Lindsey was so ridiculous during the South Carolina primary. It was almost like he was as excited as a young bride on her wedding night...kinda sick.
