Republican Vice President pick

Whoever is picked by McCain for VP, should be a front runner for President in 2012, assuming McCain is a 1 term President. Lets hope it's not a Dan Quayle type of choice.

Mitt would be a great choice, and would set him up as a sitting VP for the next Presidential election. Sitting VP's usually have a huge advantage. As strong as Dick Cheney is/was as VP, was he actually a good choice considering he was never going to run for President.

Hindsight, I won't use it.

Below The Beltway blog discusses the Vice President Pick.

An excerpt.

........but I think there are a lot of people that are in Steve’s position, and a lot of people who would be swayed into voting Republican in 2008 if McCain picks a Vice-Presidential nominee they can live with, especially if Hillary is the Democratic nominee. The problem is that history shows that Republican nominees haven’t done that great a job picking running mates recently. Reagan did a fairly good job picking George H.W. Bush in 1980 because Bush solidified his links with the GOP Establishment, and Bush was a pretty good Vice-President. Other than that, things don’t look good .........
