The Veepstakes Have Begun
That's the word from Reuters Steve Holland, who reports that McCain has begun looking for a running mate. I can imagine the ad now: "70-something Republican presumptive nominee looking for 40-50 year old running mate. Must enjoy long, hard slogs on the beach and share a passion for fiscal restraint." Anyway, here's a real quote:
Steve Holland - March 12th, 2008 McCain said he was just beginning to put together a search team to vet potential candidates and seek background checks on them. He joked that he has had "at least 100 volunteers to lead" the search for a No. 2.
Holland adds that "no decision was expected any time soon."
Probably true, but we can still look forward to the inevitably leaked shortlist. Smart money's still on Pawlenty, I suppose, assuming you can't bet The Field.
