Why Obama/Biden Means McCain Has To Pick RomneyRelatedCourtesy Donklephant Mon, 08/25/2008 - 5:58am
Since Justin raised the question last night, I figured I’d contribute these thoughts adapted from a post at Below The Beltway. There’s a lot of merit in the argument that having Biden on the other side of the Democratic ticket makes it hard for McCain to pick someone who has only a limited amount of political experience without risking that the Vice-Presidential Debate could turn into another Lloyd Bentsen-Dan Quayle type matchup.

Palin Veep
Despite the Dems and the allied main stream media’s desperation to see Romney as McCain’s Veep, Mitt is clearly out, with (1) Obama doubling down on the class warfare theme (McCain’s 7 houses) and (2) McCain doubling down with ads showing the hypocrisy of Biden attacking Obama in the primaries — Romney did way more than that contra McCain.
This leaves only Govs Sarah Palin and Tim Pawlenty. Pro-abortion Ridge and Dem-Lieberman were never real considerations, despite relentless media goading. Pawlenty’s lackluster TV performances, coupled with Palin pizzazz, the primacy of oil drilling and the ticked off women/Hillary voters, does now portend a McCain/Palin checkmate on the Dems. This is so albeit the Dems and liberal media dare not mention Palin’s name, that is, everyone but…..
And if there’s any question as to Palin being uniquely positioned and able to more than nullify Biden in debate, see the excellent discussion at palinforvp.blogspot.com
Team McCain, well done!!!
