“Wonder Bread” is putting it kindly. How about “crashing bore?” “Babyfaced nobody?” “Bush league obscurity?” “Wholly inadequate lightweight?” This guy could face down the Russians or the Iranians if McCain were incapacitated while in office? This guy has the gravitas to replace McCain? If he’s the selection, it’s because McCain has such an ego, he can’t risk the possibility of selecting someone who could potentially overshadow him such as Mitt Romney. This represents a monumental lack of judgment on McCain’s part. Another in a long line of foul ups that have characterized his political career. I won’t vote for him.

I’m so getting tired of this. IT WILL NOT BE A HARDCORE CONSERVATIVE. It can’t. Period. He wants to win and in order to win he needs Hillary Dems. What part of that don’t you understand. HE HAS TO WIN... HE HAS TO WIN...

I think it’s Pawlenty. Too bad the Romney fellators are already trashing the guy.

I will vote for this ticket. I just hope that Pawlenty isn’t as boring as some say.

Sounds like a northern version of Huckabee

I still think it’s going to be Mitt. I’ll believe that until I hear McCain say otherwise.

I didn’t know anything about him. Here’s a website.

He definitely is qualified.

Putting Palin on the ticket and being the first woman VP in history would breakthrough those 18000 cracks in the glass ceiling....Palin for President in 2012.

Do you want a VP or a MILF?

Both.

Since the other thread is locked - I’d go for Sarah Palin.

Pawlenty isn’t credible.

If you don’t mind a smoke nazi, Algorian VP with no military experience, I guess he’s qualified

Pawlenty brings nothing to the ticket. A subpar squish who presided over a total wipeout of the MN GOP on his watch (ALL separately elected statewide GOP incumbents, a Congressmember, blowing the U.S. Senate race, loss of the MN House majority (from over 60% down to 36%) and losing 1/3rd of the State Senators). A disaster.

There’s no evidence he’ll put MN in the GOP column since he has NEVER won a majority of the vote in his runs for Governor. BAD choice (not as bad as Slick Willard, but still unacceptable).

Pawlenty has definitely turned to the left. He and McCain have alot in common.

No fecal matter, Holmes. Pity that more can't see that here.
