On Monday night, at a fund-raiser in New Mexico, John McCain said this about his former mortal enemy, Mitt Romney: “I’m appreciative every time I see Mitt on television on my behalf. He does a better job for me than he did for himself as a matter of fact.” This may not have been a joke.
Yesterday, Romney sat down for an interview with CBS News. It is a striking interview, in part because Romney seems to be making the McCain argument better than McCain, or McCain's campaign. There is a clarity to the soundbites that McCain has mostly lacked, a clear line of attack against Obama's experience and McCain's plans. Add to that whatever fundraising burst Romney could provide as a VP candidate, as well as Romney's strength in key swing states like Michigan and Nevada, and it's not hard to see why McCain may end up with a running mate whose hand he didn't shake in the primaries.

EXCEPT: Mitt says in the interview that McCain distinguishes himself from Obama on drilling in the Alaska National Wildlife Refuge. This is wrong, according to the latest McCain statements. Both McCain and Obama oppose drilling in ANWR.

Romney-Palin would have made a winning team for conservatives & America!
That is until McCain picks another candidate, and then ole Slick Willard will turn attack dog and do to McCain's generals what Je$$e wanted to do to Obama's.
Love Palin
That would work, too
McCain needs someone young and smart and presentable..
Someone who hasnt badmouthed him..
:)
Oh, let’s not mess up Palin by saddling her with McCian...
Let’s save her for ‘12 as a VP...
We will need her...
Horse crap to you too!
Believe what ever you wish!
Maybe you're just more comfortable with the Evangelicals that put out HATE rants against Mitt for VP? In the next breath their claiming to be “Christians”. LOL!
Actually these Evangelicals are the liars and emphasizes how Unchristian they are by their actions.
I happily voted for Mitt in the primary. I'm a Bible based Christian who is a HARD CORE conservative, fiscally and socially. Mitt gets my approval and that is hard to do. As it stands now, there is NO WAY, I'd vote for McPain UNLESS Mitt is his VP. Otherwise, McPain won't get my vote.
Exactly. With Romney, McCain might take Utah.
With Palin, McCain will take every state except two.
“EVANGELICALS FOR MITT”
“EVANGELICALS FOR OBAMA”
“CODE PINK”
Same group of people...
all paid by Soros....
bttt
Very good analysis.
I’m a Conservative baptist that will be voting for McCain and I’ll put time and effort into the campaign if Romney is on the ticket.
I’m a Bible based Christian

REEEEEEEEAAAAALLLLLLYYYYYYYY ????????
Don’t worry, I am up to no good...
I am starting to see a win win here for true conservative with McCain/Romney...
For us conservatives this election is done, so I am looking at ‘12 etc...
I’ll explain later...
Romney did a great job on The Live Desk today.
They asked him a series of tough and quick questions.
He explained where John McCain stood on the economy and where he stood.
He also talked about drilling in Alaska.
Excellent.
Where did you get this info Nana? Or are you just making stuff up?
I believe facts, not fraud, kid. You need to grow up and smell the manure Slick Willard is spreading. I've known him 14 years, and he's one of the biggest con-artists around. If you actually SINCERLY believe his schtick, you're incredibly naive. Why don't you read the words above spoken by Jim Robinson. Or do you think he's "full of it" ?
"I happily voted for Mitt in the primary. I'm a Bible based Christian who is a HARD CORE conservative, fiscally and socially. Mitt gets my approval and that is hard to do."
Nope, you're just a liberal in denial. You kids think you can pee on our legs and tell us it's raining. Who do you think you're kidding ? Just like those callers to the talk shows pretending to be something they're not.
I don’t know about Soros. Slick Willard has all his own money to spend on his fraud.
No, no, I get what you’re doing. I’m still not giving up on this election yet... McCain still has time to save himself and pick Mark Sanford before its too late.
It is noteworthy that in this 4-3 decision, all three dissenting justices issued separate opinions. None of them claim the majority had no authority to render its decision or that it can be disregarded by the executive or legislative branches. The plain language of the decision states it becomes effective in 180 days to allow the legislature to take whatever action it deems appropriate in light of the court's decision.
FRiend, we both agree the decision was an improper activist one, we just disagree that the executive branch can choose to disregard the decision.

Good!
