With internal GOP polls looking good and PA swinging McCain, it may be time to think about the cabinet. I would stick with Gates as SOD and go with Mitt for Treasury. What do you think?

I agree with those two picks. Romney in anything dealing with economy will be a huge boost to his presidency.

Makes my skin crawl to see Lindsey Graham mentioned for multiple positions. But, let’s win first, then deal with that.

Knowing McCain, he’ll probably ask Obama to become the Education Secretary.

I would like to see Gen General James Cartwright as Sec Def (although Keeping Gates isn’t a bad idea), Bolton Sec of State (clean-up time), Steve Forbes- Treasury or Commerce...

With the GOP so weak in the Senate, Politico's list of appointees includes Republican Senators.
Yeah, right. McCain is so mercurial that I think it a poor prospect to predict what he will do. Consider his VP pick.

I had heard Joe Lieberman for some sort of high cabinet position. I know Joe is loyal to McCain, but he is Ind/Dem. Perhaps an ambassordship for him.
Let’s not forget Oliver North people. He belongs in a high profile cabinet position. Of course, the Senate Confirmation will be tough for him, but wouldn’t he be great as National Security Advisor or even Secretary of Defense. I’d vote for him.

I would stick with Gates as SOD and go with Mitt for Treasury. I was a supporter of Mitt to get the VP nod prior to Palin being named and themn thought he'd make a great Secretary of the Treasury but the recent alleged sniping and sowing of dissention by his surrogates regarding Palin, presumably to undermine her and better position him for 2012, if true, eliminate him from contention in my mind (and McCain will know if those allogations are true).

I think that McCain should put his old friend Fred Smith in a Sec Treasury. He’ll get the money moving in the right direction.
