SNOW: Well, you’re absolutely right though, it’s going to be fun to see. Now John Kerry, is it true that John Kerry asked you to be his vice president?

McCAIN: Uh, no. No, it was never offered.

SNOW: It was never offered. So, it may have been discussed elliptically, but never flat out request.

McCAIN: Never was an offer, no.

SNOW: When you had conversations, did you think it was a little weird that he’d be calling you, even in general terms about this sort of thing?

McCAIN: Well, he and I have been friends for a number of years because of our efforts on POWs and MIAs which was a very hot issue back in the early 90’s, a lot of people have forgotten about it, but it was a- and we worked together to try to resolve that issue and I appreciate the work that he did on it. And, so it’s not unusual for us to have conversations.

SNOW: Right. But, so- I want to just lay to rest once and for all: never approached you, never hinted that he wanted to talk to you about being vice president. All that kind of stuff was made up.

McCAIN: Well, I cannot attest to that. All I can tell you is my conversations with him were private conversations, but he never offered it

1. Yeah, but does he have enough integrity to tell Bush no

if Bush asks him to be VP? McCain CAN'T agree to be a party to what Bushies are doing, can he? Is he evil, like the rest of them, just a little LESS EVIL???

2. I wish I knew.

We sure live in crappy times though.

in your regular every day republican sort of way. He's not nusto fundie, god told me to be president evil sort of way.

4. I don't think McCain is EVIL like the *. He has tried to put the country

ahear do politics many times more than most rePIGs. I hope that he does not makes himself covered in filth by teaming up with the criminals.
