That's what they're discussing on msnbc ~ saying that McCain is dangling the veep spot in front of Huck.

3. I said the same thing to the Mrs. about 60 min prior to that |
|
Huck will bring the religionistos into play. And there is a decent chance their boy would be Pres through death. Lookout, constitution.

4. It's a scary thought... |
|
But makes strategic sense ~ a Southerner who can pull in the fundies and reassure those who see McCain as too moderate. YIKES!

Talking about Huck's "good humor" and "grace" ~ I don't know.

8. ..and Huck is a Governor |
|
.. so the logic will be that his executive branch experience will bring insight to McCain's senatorial perspective. And Huck is beloved of Evangelicals.
However, both are considered "too liberal" (read: they actually worked together with Dems at one time or another) in some GOP circles.

10. That's quite possible |
|
I've been wondering myself tonight who might be the GOP VP.
Giuliani's angling for it. I wonder who McCain would pick.
I think Giuliani's more likely.
