(snip)...

another "reach around" (to the Dems?)

""Nice as a Minus It's hard to find someone in Washington willing to say a bad word about Portman. Sure, there's some professional jealousy about Portman's rapid rise in Congress and the Administration -- a show horse, not a work horse, his critics allege -- but those hits on him are few and far between. Why? Because, during his time in Congress, and even while he worked within the Bush Administration, Portman showed a willingness to work regularly with Democrats on a variety of issues. (Maryland Democratic Sen. Ben Cardin is an unabashed Portman admirer, for example.)"

All this was to keep McCain in the headlines. It was Romney all along. Or not.

I pray to God they are wrong.

Need a woman or a person of color. If we had wanted Romney, he would have been voted as the nominee.

Would like Pastor Huckabee better.

No Romney and no Pawlenty and no Lieberman.

Heather Wilson
Jennifer Carroll
JC Watts

Someone we can get excited about! PLEASE!

In terms of conservativism, I don’t like Romney OR McCain. But he could do worse, and for that matter it is hard to imagine McCain doing better than this.
At least Romney knows how to run both a business and a state; how to talk to the media and represent a constituency. These are not ordinary abilities.

hope so.

Hope so? You're wanting the ultra liberal McCain to have the ultra liberal Mitt as his VP?

If it's Mitt, the only weak conservatives still supporting McCain will jump ship. Bottom line, if you even consider voting for McCain you're a conservative without principles or a liberal. Conservatives do not abandon principles, and McCain stands for nothing conservative.

Hussein will be terrible for this country, but hopefully after getting it's butt handed to it again like it did in 2006, the GOP will realize a move to the center is not acceptable.

For some reason Democrats are scared of Romney - and also wanted his to lose during the primaries. Ann Coulter and Tancredo endorsed Romney - that is a plus. I doubt though that the VP will make much different as long as it is safe choice.
