Bobby Jindal...
A Catholic VP w/Indian
A Catholic VP w/Indian heritage?....dont think so. Too many racist/Catholic haters in the South. I think him winning in LA was an anomoly due to the prior gov being an absolute idiot + Katrina. Then again McCain needs someone 50 years younger than him to balance out his grumpy old man ticket.
He's young,
Sharpe, a great speaker, and very well educated...sound familiar?
Dan Quayle
Dan Quayle
or...
possibly the current candidate mike...
and you're comparing...
Someone that graduated from Brown in 3 years (Biology/Public Policy) to someone that graduated from DePauw (Poli Sci). No knock on DePauw, but after that he proceeded to graduate from Oxford as a Rhodes Scholar...
Miley Cyrus
She's the only one that can draw a crowd anywhere near Obama's size and she's hip and hot and her birth name is Destiny Hope.

I have often thought George the Elder picked him as a running mate because he reminded him of his own son.

The country would be in much better shape if Quayle had been running it for the past eight years.
That brought a chuckle.

Seriously, if they love
Seriously, if they love Cheney so much, why don't they just marry him (and his 15% approval rating)? I'm all for McCain/Cheney '08.

VP for McCain
My vote for VP is Liz Ann Sonders.
If you have smart ass
If you have smart ass remarks - get the hell off of here. damn democrats. nothing better to do but poke fun of republicans. grow the hell up.
Take my wife, please!
Republicans have a ready wit. Tell me when it's ready.
A self-taught Republican usually has a poor teacher and a worse student.
Do you know what it means to come home at night to a Republican who'll give you a little love, a little affection, a little tenderness? It means you're in the wrong house, that's what it means.
If my mother knew I was a Republican for a living, she'd kill me. She thinks I'm selling dope.
This Republican used to go to school with his dog. Then they were separated. His dog graduated!
A Republican has a nice personality, but not for a human being.

What have Dan Quayle and
What have Dan Quayle and Dick Cheney accomplished?
They have been on the winning side in 3 of the last 4 national elections that they ran as GOP VP candidates. That's a .750 batting average. Not bad for a DePauw guy who can't spell and a bad shooter with a so-called 15% approval rating! What does this say about the guys they beat????????????
Oh, I forgot, the GOP is now stealing elections (FL in 00 and OH in 04).

Mark Sanford - South Carolina Governor
Plenty of conservative credentials, presiding over a fairly prosperous state with a nice enconomic blend. low taxes, including military bases, will appease the social/fiscal conservatives who can't quit get comfortable with John McCain.
Bill Frist. Interestingly,
Bill Frist.
Interestingly, this is looking like the first ticket since '72 without a Bush or a Dole.
