Numbers Show that McCain's VP Will Be Mitt Romney
stonecipher.typepad.com — It's not official yet, but the numbers from the primary elections show that Romney makes a lot of sense for McCain, plus the other three names being tossed around the most are all pretty lousy candidates.

- glibpaxman, on 08/28/2008, -0/+9please let it be romney. mccain/ romney would be the easiest to defeat. he picks up no extra votes or regions and loses the evangelicals who distrust mormans. please please please pick romney.
mccain should be picking huckabee. i disagree with everything that man says but i still like him. - IdigObama, on 08/28/2008, -0/+7Purty Boy Romney!
How many homes do they have between them?
Thank you Lord for letting Joe Biden be Obamas choice!
Obama/Biden 08!- JekJob, on 08/29/2008, -0/+2Approximately 12 houses. And $270 million. Let's lower taxes for rich people! Pff.
Obama/Biden 08, for sure.

- tcbishop12, on 08/29/2008, -0/+2Question from West Texas -- Mitt's the Mormon that has just one wife, right? I mean, for now, at least.
- tcbishop12, on 08/29/2008, -0/+2Romney actually has some polygamy issues. For one thing, he really, really likes joking about polygamy—the ultimate Mormon oddity, major issue in the news this year in west Texas, and one in which Romney's family was directly involved. (According to the LDS Church's Family Search service, Miles Park Romney, Mitt's great-grandfather, had five wives) "I believe marriage should be between a man and a woman … and a woman … and a woman," Romney quipped at the 2005 St. Patrick's Day breakfast in Boston.
He made the same joke on Don Imus' 2006 St. Patrick's Day show. Thanks to Romney's perfect delivery and the self-deprecating subtext—the tension between Romney's defense of "traditional" marriage and his own ancestors' history—it's a pretty funny line.
But if you're trying to convince evangelicals that you share their values, why make your job more difficult? - JekJob, on 08/29/2008, -0/+2I thought it was going to be Romney too, but Tim Pawlenty just jumped SIXTY PERCENT (60 %) in the Intrade markets, while Romney dropped nearly 40% just in the past day. Romney is now at 6% and Pawlenty is at 85%.
That leads me to believe somebody knows something we don't, or maybe it's because of the report that Pawlenty cleared his schedule for the weekend. - Cfahooligan, on 08/29/2008, -0/+2Oh I hope it is. But the word on the street is, just like it went down for Biden, is saying that it is Pawlenty. Mr. Mullet himself. I hope it is a colossal mistake like Romney though. The hypocrisy after the way the McCain camp ripped Obama for taking a fierce opponent during the primary will be astronomical.
- DVmaker, on 08/29/2008, -0/+1Ha, great call. It's Palin.
