"Not necessarily, as the Electors might vote for the next highest vote getter which would be McCain.

I saw it posted here in another thread...but i cannot find it.

There is a section of the Constitution dealing with this. Someone posted it.

It says something about if the president elect is deemed ineligible before being sworn in the running mate is sworn in....
