From CBS News.....

On the Republican side, the majority of speculation has increasingly been confined to two men: Minnesota Governor Tim Pawlenty and former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney. On the campaign trail, McCain has been talking up his longtime friend Pawlenty, and the Minnesotan recently paid a visit to the presumptive Republican nominee's national campaign headquarters in Virginia. Meanwhile, Romney remains in a strong position, in part due to recent polling that shows he could very well put Michigan in the Republican column for the first time since 1988.

I am not going to make a prediction because I can't read MCcain's mind. But you had better hope he picks Romney...

Why? I think Romney would help McCain tremendously.

Like they said about Fred Astaire and Ginger Rodgers....

"He give her class, and she gives him sex appeal."

Better you hope your right about Romney, if not you will be USMB's official jackass of 2008...

Oh, yea, like I've never been wrong before.

So is it your position now that you want to recant that MCcain will pick Romney or do you want to say you are some type of freaking Nostradamus?

Romney just seems like the obvious choice.

A younger-looking, handsome, attack dog who can deliver Michigan.
