I am not convinced a VP selection helps in the general election. The problem is every positive is usually balanced by another negative.

I hope Senator McCain chooses to pick a person for VP who would make a great President. This is his first job, and in some ways, the most important. Especially so considering his age.

Who said I was sitting out? I plan on voting in all other elections but the presidential election.

“I can’t stand McCain either but I sure as heck am not going to roll over and play dead and let the RATS take the presidency in the next election”....

that is where we differ. I believe mclame IS a RAT and I dont vote RAT.

He did the ‘conservative’ talk ....but he never did go after his buddy, McCain.

He voted for McCain/Feingold....and I think he wants to be McCain’s VP

Fred finished his political career with this endorsement.

It was completely unnecessary since McCain is going to win the nomination anyway.

He never was the shining knight in white armor that this forum wanted him to be. He’s obviously proven that twicefold at this point.

And for all of you that are about to tell me to vote to keep out Obama or Hillary, shut it. You are the exact people that have run this party into the ground.

Ooooh.

I agree. Fear instead of core values is what has caused many of us to vote they we've been voting for a few years and now look where it's gotten us.
