Personally, I think the Dem/Libs are afraid of him. He can debate them and he can make them look bad. He is not a conservative’s conservative and first choice ... however he present a viable option to be a voice against Dem/Libs. He also presents some good qualities and traits McCain doesn’t possess. Management ability, leadership ability, speaking ability to name a few.
I know that a lot of people don’t like Mitt and that is fine, but if the stupid press is even mentioning him and spreadig BS stories, they must fear him. Notice how they don’t say squat about knucklebee EVER.
McCain is less liberal government spending wise, and when seeing an opening, has taken a vote costing stand. Something Mitt has never done. In this elections, McCain has come out, in Indiana no less, against ethanol. Something Mitt would never have the spine to do.
McCain bested Obama, and has won, what 8 elections to Mitts one.
Mitt left the Mass GOP in ruins. He used, bought and abused it. I don't know if he ever got the thanks he should of from Mass Democrats. There is something creepy, and un democratic with the stickiness of Romney's name in this election. The weird support from NR, the effete elite of the GOP, Mitt's beating in the nomination by a broke, old, stumble McCain. The constant quasi Democrat tactic of any one against Mitt is an snake handling evangelical and or Mormon bigot. I know I used to 'get' Mitt. But that was until he reviled himself as Governor as the go along to get along to become President ticket puncher. In a way, Mitt reminds me of Nixon. There's a wiff of energetic, intelligent, dogged desperation.

McCain possessed all those on Saturday night...
He has military leadership and experience that none of the short list VP picks have...
Duncan Hunter would come close but he’s not on the list...
