Veep tea leaves
As John McCain's decision on who will be is vice presidential running mate draws closer, the guesswork becomes more intricate, bordering on hilarious.Sen. Bob Bennett tells the Tribune it will be Mitt Romney because, well:
It makes sense to put the two of them together.Utah's Uncle Bob gets bonus points for bringing up what no Republican dares utter:
If you're afraid McCain is going to drop dead, he's got a vice president [Romney] who is fully up to speed and can step in.Meanwhile the Wall Street Journal is giddy over veep guessing, ruling out Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty and Romney because neither have plans to join McCain in Ohio.
WSJ smugly thought they had it nailed as Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, above:
The reason: a charter flight from Anchorage International Airport landed Thursday night at Hook Municipal Field in Ohio.But WSJ backtracked early today when Palin’s press secretary said the governor had not left the state.
The New York Times makes an argument for Sen. Joe Lieberman because McCain's rally begins early enough to announce Lieberman, an orthodox Jew, as the vice presidential candidate before his sabbath begins at sundown.
And Gov. Jon Huntsman, who is a distant possibility, isn't saying anything.

Amazing. The Palin story has been out for hours and until now no one has commented on this pathetic blog.
Palin lacks experience in community organizing.
I'm hoping for Lieberman...(Obama supporter)
