Put me down for Sarah Palin, AK Governor

How about Michael Palin?

NOBODY on the Republican side is going to beat Biden in debates.

I can agree on that...but Biden can beat himself. He is a blowhard, and can say dumb things at times.

Romney would hold his own against Biden. You don't make your fortune as a venture capitalist by being a pansy ass.

Careful what you write - you may get Harlan all excited.

McCain has come a long way in winning over the hearts and minds of true America-loving American. He needs to choose Romney to finish that job.

In a more practical sense, Romney helps him to wrap up Michigan, which the Dems pissed off and away over the primary thing. Romney also helps in Mormon-heavy Nevada and to a lesser extent, Colorado, which the Dems have thoughts of stealing.

Pawlenty may be a nice guy and a fairly decent conservative, but he is a nobody with a funny name. Besides, Minnesota has a lot less electoral votes than Michigan.

Pawlenty, Palin, and others like Bobby Jindal may be great future prospects, but they aren't known or experienced enough to be good candidates.

I'm tempted to advocate Condoleeza Rice, but the fact is, we really know very little about her views on anything other than foreign policy.

Romney would stack up real well next to Biden--similar in appearance, stature, and style, but diametrically different in a wonderful pro-American way--in favor of Romney--on the issues.

And in case it makes a difference, Romney would be far and away more eminently qualified to be president than any of the others mentioned.

I agree with every word of this post.

Sarah Palin is quite attractive.

The future ticket....

I didn't know she was a hot MILF. Get her on the ticket!

In reality I think Romney makes a good choice. McCain needs someone that can solidify the ticket.

[digitaldean]

I think it will probably be Romney. If he picks Hutchinson, he'll hear howls from the pro-life groups. If he picks Lieberman, he could get a floor fight on his hands.

[bobblehead]

How about this scenario....McCain has REALLY been running to the right, but can't run from his record so he loses...badly. In 2012 we get Newt Gingrich and Bobby Jindal, that is my dream scenario.

[sheepshead]

Palin??? Rumors are heating up this morning.

Palin??? Rumors are heating up this morning.

Yup, they say a Gulfstream yet flew from Alaska to Cincy and a woman and two teen sons were rushed into a van this morning. It was real hush hush! Pawlenty said he will be at the Minnesota state fair and Romney is in California.

Going with Palin seems like a move to really court the women voters and an effort to get Hilary supporters. My thing is, who is Palin. I don't follow politics as much as I used to, but I have never heard of her. I have a feeling many others have not either. I'd love to see her debate Biden though.

Palin is actually a logical choice. She adds six things to McCain's ticket:

1) She's a solid conservative, so she energizes the base (esp. on abortion;

2) She's a magnet for disaffected women voters who wanted Hillary;

3) She comes from humble roots so she negates the "elite" and "rich" arguments;

4) She's young, so she makes it difficult for the Dems to raise the age issue and if the Dems criticize her for inexperience the Repubs can turn it back on Obama;

5) She's from an "energy" state and is all for drilling for oil in Anwar, which negates McCain's idiocy on the issue;

6) She guarantees the states of Pennsylvania, Michigan, Ohio and Wisconsin for McCain in the Fall.
