Fred has flat out said he will NOT be VP - on Hannity the other day he went through the litany - if drafted he won’t accept, if elected he won’t serve....he said he thought had might have had a moment when he could have had the top job but that didn’t work out. Absolutely not interested in VP.
I don’t think he’d be enough of a contrast to McCain to help much as VP - while he’s not as old as McCain, he actually looks even older, for one thing. But he will probably be excellent as an advisor, and then perhaps some position within McCain’s administration.
Yes, I heard Fred say that also. His vetting judges for McCain would be great......or on the Court himself would be fine with me!
