KBH is the most conservative person I've heard discussed as a realistic choice (she's to the right of Romney, especially economically). She's got a good handle on energy and would make Biden seem foolish in a debate.

[Republican Extremist]

He needs a Governor, not another Senator.

[dragnet2]

Yeah, that's what the Republicans need, another open borders supporter from Texas...

Gezzz

[DFG]

KBH is about as charismatic as a rock and not very conservative. She has run away from the immigration issue. Biden would make mince meat out of her.

Kay Bailey Hutchinson is about like choosing Lindsay Graham. She is a Rino. Which ever way the wind blows. Look at Cornyn if you want a Texas Conservative (except for that gang of 10 sh*t)(Was that coryn?)

Sure, Biden brings credibility and experience and reassuring familiarity to the Democratic ticket,...

Another conservative columnist who apparently thinks he has to say really stupid things to appease his liberal neighbors. Biden most certainly brings no credibility to anything. He is a know plagarist, multiple times. That is not credibility. Sure he brings familiarity, but what experience does he bring? The American public generally votes for executive experience in the presidential race.

HUTCHINSON!!?!!?

NO WAY!

NO MORE RINOS!

NO MORE OPEN BORDER AMNESTY FOOLS!

NO MORE ANTI-FENCE SENATORS!

We have too many senators in this race. The senate beltway is OVERrepresented.

The choice must be a non-senator.

KBH has NO gravitas on the VP debate. Biden will wipe the floor with kbh.

McCain would be snatching defeat from the jaws of victory. (see also GOP=stupid party)

How about the U.S. ambassador to the Vatican, Mary Ann Glendon?

I am going to put my 2 cents in here to all of you. Judging by the great ads and the campaign that McCain's people(notice I didn't say McCain)is running, I think they will steer him to a good, solid VP pick. Personally, I like Palin but don't think she has a snowball's chance in the hot place of being picked, ditto for Senator Hutchison. I think McCain will pick a governor for VP, and they will be conservative. He is listening to his campaign managers, that is why his political ads are so kick a**, I think he will listen to his managers on the VP pick also.

Judging by his ads against Biden(about trashing Obama, etc.)he doesn't dare pick Romney or any other opponent that opposed him in the Primaries. Therefore it will be someone else, someone conservative and a Governor. I hope I am right, and we all have our dreams don't we?

[Mr Inviso]

But why would anyone think that McCain is worried about Texas’ EV’s? That’s going to be the Numero Uno consideration in a VP pick right now.

[PAR35]

Looks like the team is going into overdrive pushing the liberal KBH.
