Who the hell cares about a VP for a candidate that will inevitably finish
second, even assuming McCain wins the nomination for the runner up party?

McCain needs someone he can stand next to and make him look healthier,

He will not have any opportunity to pick a VP. He's a good man, I have
alot of respect for him - but he will never be President and I doubt
the Republicans will choose him as a standard bearer. Doesn't matter -
the American people are in no mood to elect another Republican - not
after the mess Bush and Company have made of says.
Say it- say it loud. President Obama.

I still think Hillary's most likely pick is Richardson. He's got enough
"experience" for both of them, and it ensures that the Latino vote (except
in Little Havana in Miami) goes overwhelmingly Democratic.

He wouldn't pick Rice because who would want someone that incompetent a
heartbeat away from the presidency.
McCain is already saddled with his strong, unwavering support for Bush's
Iraq war, and if he tries to get people to forget, the Democrats won't let
him.

He'll need to pick a moderate if he wants to win, as
McCain's relative social conservatism along with his
Bush cheerleading on Iraq will be a liability in many
states. Many people even now don't realize the extent
of either McCain's social conservatism and Bush cheerleading.
Look for the Democratic nominee to spotlight both during

To the contrary, although he is extremely conservative, he's considered a
turncoat by many Republicans, especially evangelicals. He'll pick Huckabee
to shore himself up with the party base.
It will further ensure a Republic defeat.

We have no right to be in Iraq, plain and simple. Just because
most Iraqis don't like Al-Qaeda means that they want us there..they
don't. Besides, there was no "Al-Qaeda in Iraq" before we invaded.
Bush is now talking about not pulling out troops from Iraq at all,
backing away from what he said before. I guess the oil supplies
aren't as, um, secure (secure for plundering by Bush campaign
contributors) as he had hoped they would be at that point.
You would think that he'd declare "victory" and leave,

He'll need to pick a moderate if he wants to win, as
McCain's relative social conservatism along with his
Bush cheerleading on Iraq will be a liability in many
states. =EF=BF=BDMany people even now don't realize the extent
of either McCain's social conservatism and Bush cheerleading.
Look for the Democratic nominee to spotlight both during
a general election.
Richard.
McCain is a moderate, what are you talking about.
Bill O'Really
McCain is only a moderate when compared to hardliners
like Bush, Thompson, Huckabee & Romney. =EF=BF=BDHis social
conservatism along with his cheerleading for Bush
on the war will hurt him in many states.
Richard.
Well what should he do? Force Bush/US to pull up stakes and run with
its tail between its legs....no his attitude is one of the few correct=
ones. =EF=BF=BDAl Qaeda has been defeated except for a few remnants. =
=EF=BF=BDEven the
Iraqi's didn't want their kind around.
We have no right to be in Iraq, plain and simple. =EF=BF=BDJust because=
most Iraqis don't like Al-Qaeda means that they want us there..they
don't. =EF=BF=BDBesides, there was no "Al-Qaeda in Iraq" before we inva=

Bush is now talking about not pulling out troops from Iraq at all,
backing away from what he said before. =EF=BF=BDI guess the oil supplie=

aren't as, um, secure (secure for plundering by Bush campaign
contributors) as he had hoped they would be at that point.
You would think that he'd declare "victory" and leave,
making it much easier for the GOP in this year's elections..but, then
again, who is going to fund their campaigns?
Also, Cheney needs to build his nest egg with empire-building.

We won't cut and run with McCain in there. Hillary won't get us out
either and you're fooling yourself if you think she would. Like we
were in Germany after WW2 we won't be leaving Iraq anytime soon.
Germans overwhelmingly *wanted* US troops in Germany after the war. The
alternative was Russian troops bent on revenge.
By contrast, Iraqis overwhelmingly want US troops out of Iraq.
I'm
not saying it's right. I'm just saying our elected leaders realize as
much. Some will tell you we'll stay like McCain and others like
Hillary will beat around the bush and won't tell you the truth. I
want to hear the truth.
Well you're right but Germans had no choice. I think the overwhelming
majority of Iraqi's fear if we would depart right now. It's not an
easy decision or one that can be made on usenet. Lets hope the Iraqi
people do what it takes to succeed. They're a very good people and
deserve better than what they had under Saddam. Of course it's not
our job to ensure this but theirs. TD Indy. Watching the game and
trying to type is hard.
