I agree...Biden was an awful pick but tells me that Obama sees himself as invensible. He thinks this election is a wrap.

Dick Morris has made a strong suggestion...

Reason enough to discount it.

How do you figure? She's "pro-choice," which is to say pro-abortion. She was pro-babykilling long before stem cells was ever an issue.

Check THIS: "A woman has a right to choose abortion, with restrictions, until viability."

She's opposed pro-life judges.

It's stupid these lame "let's screw the base" ideas keep being floated.

In your dreams. Sen. Hutchison is a total airhead. She is going to run for Gov. of Texas and will be soundly beaten. I think!!!

Maybe that’s why Morris is pushing her?

Before her he was pushing Condi Rice, Colin Powell or Joe Lieberman.

Ah I see how it comes together now.

She’s pro-choice and pro open borders. What makes her a true conservative? Being pro big business? Better to have Romney.

God no to Hutchinson. She brings nothing to the ticket. Texas is in the bag. We need Romney in the debate against Biden and he can help deliver Michigan, Nevada, Colorado.

Obama is shedding his invincible shine, but it's still his election to lose.

Nominating a woman would change all that, and give McCain the edge. If he wants to seize the initiative away from Obama, this would be the way to do it. Give the fence riding Democratic women the revenge they crave. That's just good politics.

And please, spare me the 'I only want the best one for the job' argument. Since when has that ever happened for a VP? Cheney's the only VP in history that's really even had a job. The VP pick should be about balancing the ticket, and if gender has replaced regionalism, than so be it. A reasonably conservative/qualified woman does far more for McCain's chances of being elected than a reasonably conservative/qualified male from a swing state.

Hutchison was indicted in the early ‘90s though. The charges were eventually dropped.

Charged by Ronnie Earle, point man for the Austin Dem smear machine. 'Nuff said.

If McCain picks a moderately pro-choice woman, better Sec. Rice than Sen. Hutchison.

Moderately pro-choice? What the heck does that even mean?

Both of them are willing to let the unborn die at the hands of abortionists. What's moderate about that?

Nope, neither Rice nor Huchison is qualified.

Previously I was not convinced of this logic.

Now I am.

As the Hillary! bi*($#@s lick their wounds and feed their resentment, now is the perfect time to twist the knife and put a gal on the GOP ticket.

That’s what we need. 2 amnesty supporters on one ticket. If you’re gonna pick a woman for the sake of sex, at least pick a conservative one — how about Michelle Malkin?

That would make 4 senators on the respective tickets. We’ve never even had an election with 3.
