Sorry, but I just don't see that happening. The last thing McCain needs is another 'older' guy as a running mate, despite how much Thompson would add to the ticket.
I don't see Huckabee getting the nod either, but that might depend on how much he still pulls on Super-dee-duper Tuesday...he might bring some of the religious-right along on the McCain express. Don't think it will work, but maybe.
McCain may decide to just totally discard the conservatives and pray that his appeal to the moderate dems will bring them over rather than vote for the lefty-socialists like Hill and Obama...I could see McCain picking someone like Crist of FL, another 'moderate'.
It will be interesting.
It will be interesting is right. Your theory is as good as mine. Just seems to me that he already has the RINO’s like Rudy and the Total Sellout star Sqirminator Ahnold in the bag. These fools think that reaching out across the aisle to support liberal causes makes them heros.
They don’t undertand why the hand doesn’t come across the aisle to support conservative limited government initiatives.
Seems to me that he has to pick Fred to have a prayer at least of getting some conservative votes. Otherwise, McLiberal is just relying on his sheer brilliance as an orator and salesman to convince the sheeple to vote for him vs. Billary or Osama.....HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA!
