A lot of speculation has taken place among the media’s talking heads as to who John McCain will pick as his running mate. As is the norm when mainstream pundits discuss Republican politics, their suggestions are not in the party’s best interest.
Beyond that, they’re also lazy. The media looks at who is in the race, who was in the race and a few other national leaders of prominence and keeps speculation to within those small groups. That’s the equivalent of a corporation picking its company president out of a hat. Vice Presidents are chosen based on geographic or national appeal. Not because someone also ran, wasn’t popular and lost (or is popular, but only among the same demographic that backs the top of the ticket), but at least has a familiar face and will save the media interns some time from having to research his already known background.

McCain / Clinton!
Duncan Hunter. He would help offset McCain’s liberal, un-American shamnesty views.
McInsane is power-hungry, arrogant, and has ego problems along with the issue of being a loose cannon. He won’t listen to anyone recommending a conservative.

“Duncan Hunter.”
Yes.
McVain could go to all the cocktail parties with his media friends and celebrities, while Mr. Hunter runs the country.
I triple-dog promise not to tell anyone....
Ditto
Now that the Liberals have selected the Republican POTUS candidate, they are now busy selecting the VP. Joe Lieberman? Jon Tester? Jim Webb? Give me a break.
Very good point. Thanks - might add him in a later edition.
Thank you very much.
Who is that eating popcorn with you?
McCain likes Crist. He wants to put the final nail in the GOP coffin.
Cana-duh has a free press?
Well, to stop a threat to national security. If these guys come on board, on our terms, I think it might be worth it to stop Obie or Hillabama.
Ya, Their editor’s great. They host the Michael Savage site, but are unaffiliated. I contribute to help them bring our side to Canada, but they have a much larger US readership.
A Rino-Rino or Rino-Democrat Republican ticket will lead to a Hillary or Obama POTUS. Guaranteed.
G. Gordon Liddy...
Zell Miller, for purposes of popcorn during debates. :)
