You are right. They usually say complimentary things about one another. However, if Mitt is at the top of the ticket it does not sweeten the deal for me if Huckabee is his running mate. I would rather see Fred Thompson as VP with Romney. Or another real conservative. Perhaps a new fresh face like Rep. Mike Pence. Or if they need someone from the deep south, I like Gov. Sonny Perdue.
I think that a Romney/Thompson ticket would be formidable...not to assume that either Mitt will win the nomination nor that Fred would be interested in the VP if asked.
My guess is that the dem ticket will be Obama/Clinton(yes, in that order)
and possibly a third-party McCain/Lieberman
How bout John Bolton.
