Who is on McCain's short list for VP?

[Conservababe]

I have done three searches and have found no discussion of this. Surely there have been some 'leaks' or 'trial balloons floated'.

[Red Badger]

Mitt,Huck, but not Rudy...........

[ffusco]

Rudy will be AG.

The only names that have surfaced recently per the “media” are Romney, Pawlenty and Sanford.

I wonder how the “pursits” are going to react if he actually selects a conservative. It is funny how the “purists” are so critical of Mccain but give “O the Racist” a free pass on everything.

Lieberman? I wouldn’t put it past him. Lieberman is the most decent Dem, though. Romney would fill the gap on Economic issues. But he is a Mormon and the Muslim supporters would go after him.

I want Sarah Palin, in the worst way

The Bush Administration has been floating the Condi Rice balloon all weekend.

[sarasota]

[BGHater]

Lindsey Graham.

[HuntsvilleTxVeteran]

Vicente Fox is who he prefers.

Sir, it doesn’t amtter who Juan McCain picks. And while Oboma sucks, Juan McCain blows.

If McCain moves a little more to the left or Clinton a little more to the right they can run on the same ticket.

There was a thread yesterday under the title Vp Stakes: Vote for your candidate! and an earlier one mostly about Condi under the title Strategist: Rice eyeing VP spot on ticket.

Rudy will be in prison.

Bill Richardson

Tim Pawlenty, Gov. MN.. Similar philosophy, similar speech style - straight talk all the way on things they want to talk about.

Thompson met with him last weekend:

Christine Todd Whitman’s name has been spoken softly for a while now, don’t know if she is on the short list or not.

What's a “purist?” I've only heard the term come into usage recently, and I'd like to know if this is a pejorative. If you mean, somebody who's a conservative that doesn't like McCain, then you're picking a very large fight, and McCain's already on thin ice with conservatives.
