Greetings WildcatClan:
The only reason I might hold my nose and vote for Juan McCain centers upon who he picks as his VP. Duncan Hunter would enthusiastically bring me to the GOP; giving me something to vote for, as opposed to a candidate to vote against.
Cheers,

This woman could take Hussein out!
He’s interviewing the Dalai Lama tomorrow.
Oh J.C. say it isn’t so?!
I agree on Pawlenty. It best not be him.
I know Jindal and Palin don’t have much experience; but, man we gotta have something to drum up some press, and gin up a little excitement.
What about Michael Steele?
Hey, I know! He would generate loads of press...get lots of attention: Alan Keyes!! LOL.
I love Alan Keyes, don’t get me wrong. Love to listen to him talk, which is good, because he doesn’t really like to stop...but I am just kidding.
I saw that. He would be an interesting pick....hmmmm?
I exactly agree. I am especially certain that Gov. Palin would be instant excitement and a perfect complement for McCain.
A lot of combined experience there.
YES! YES! YES!!!!!!
How about McCain becomes her VP?!
She is great! Need more info on her. Why haven’t we seen her before. THIS is who we need!
Born in Keene, New Hampshire, Wilson joined the United States Air Force at the age of seventeen, graduating four years later as a Distinguished Graduate (magna cum laude equivalent) from the U.S. Air Force Academy in 1982.[2] A Rhodes Scholar, she continued her education at Jesus College, Oxford University, earning a D.Phil.. in International Relations.[2]
Upon leaving the Air Force in 1989, Wilson became Director for European Defense Policy and Arms Control on the National Security Council. After leaving government, she founded Keystone International, Inc. in 1991 to promote business development in the United States and Russia. She was the Secretary of the New Mexico Children, Youth and Family Department.
Wilson is the first woman to represent New Mexico since Georgia Lusk in the 1940s, and is the second female veteran to be elected to Congress, the first being the Louisianan Democrat Catherine S. Long in 1985.[3][1]. In the House, she serves on the Energy and Commerce Committee and the Select Committee on Intelligence.
From 1999 to 2000 she won several awards including the “Hero of the Taxpayer Award”(1999).
Since 2001, Congresswoman Wilson has been a member of the House Page Board, and is currently a member of the Congressional Missing and Exploited Children’s caucus.
Greetings roses of sharon:
Heather Wilson is brilliant. Guess I need to learn more about Ms. Wilson.

She recently lost the primary race for NM open Senate seat, to a good conservative Republican.
So she is now free!
I have watched her for years in House debates on C-span, she always kills it!
Mitt Romney rocks.
And she dismantled them without raising her voice once. Loved it.
I’m not convinced this analysis applies this time around.
Oh, so she is NOT conservative? Not good?
Hagel.
Snowe.
Graham.
Giuliani.
Maya Angelou for that matter.
Whomever.
The deeper the stake is driven in the heart of the corrupt GOP, the quicker there will be a necessary, massive realignment of American politics, back into LEFT VS RIGHT with two major parties (not MOD/LEFT VS. LEFT as it is now), or perhaps RIGHT vs. MODERATE/RINO vs. LEFT (three distinct parties, all strong and competitive).
He should nominate Hillary. As his last public service, and redemption for his liberal sins, go down hard and bring her with him.
