Sources: McCain May Announce VP Choice Before Friday
Fox News ^ | August 25, 2008

Posted on 08/25/2008 8:52:30 PM PDT by Clintonfatigued

Presumptive Republican presidential nominee John McCain may announce his choice for a running mate earlier than expected, sources told FOX News on Monday.

McCain had previously said he would announce his vice presidential pick on Friday and would appear with that individual at a rally in Dayton, Ohio, following the announcement. Friday is McCain’s 72nd birthday.

But sources close to McCain’s campaign told FOX News that his decision may come sooner than that — possibly on Thursday, when Barack Obama accepts the Democratic nomination at Invesco field in Denver, Colo.

McCain campaign spokesman Tucker Bounds diminished the news.

“I wouldn’t much weight into reports that there are windows of possibility,” he said.

Several names have come up repeatedly as McCain’s possible running mate, including former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney, Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty, former Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Ridge and, perhaps, Democrat-turned-independent Joe Lieberman of Connecticut. Also named is Gen. David Petraeus, the incoming head of Central Command.

She would be an instant WORLD Celebrity. She’d get more coverage than obambi biden AND McCain combined. She is a woman American Women could line up with and get all jazzed up about, without a doubt.

Cocaine and Sex with obambi in 1999 and the following coverup by the Bidens in Delaware, trying to imprison Sinclair for some old charges about some money orders.

Yeah, I know about that one. I thought there might be a new one, other than Obama’s machine shutting down his website.

OK, I'll redact to *turd* thing but, I stand beside my other opinions. She's NOT qualified by any stretch of the imagination.

Right. Save the personal attacks on someone's looks for the amateur posters who don't know how to elevate their level of debate, then let the mods take it from there.

I wouldn't vote for Huck because he possesses this religious bigotry toward Mormons.

I don’t like Mormonism, but do like Mormons. I will agree Huck seems to hate Romney. That probably stems from his dislike of Mormonism.
