I’m actually kind of worried about McCain’s upcoming pick for VP candidate. There’s a good chance that he could blunder just as badly as Obama has.
I strongly agree.
Right now, he has no shortage of enthusiastic, loving advisors convinced that McCain is immortal and his health is perfect and will be for the next 8 years who believe in Democrat Identity Politics and BEGGING him to play affirnative action bingo.
Christine Whitman – Who bailed from EPA when the going got tough.
Michael Steele – Whose political career consists of one term as a lieutenant Governor of a State.
Kay Bailey Hutchinson – 65 year old safe state Texas Senator with no executive experience.
Sarah Palin – 2-year governor. Before that a housewife and part-time mayor of a town of 5,000 people.
Carly Fiorino – A seasoned executive. But..Shitcanned from HP for bad management, a disastrous merger.
Bobby Jindal – 2-year governor who ran on the promise that he was locked into staying in office and working to fix Louisiana’s
many problems.
Gov Jodi Rell, Senators Susan Collins, and Olympia Snowe – all lean to Democrat policy.
Condi Rice – Co-Architect of the Bush Disaster, his closest confident…Who gets more “bomus points” enthusiasm from identity politics fans than any other Republican. Plus she is “guaranteed” not only to bring blacks, unmarried women flocking to Republicans – but all the minority ice-skaters!
At the end of the day, John McCain is perfectly capable of “brainstorming” and coming up with a pander candidate that is even less qualified than Dan Quayle and about on the same level of readiness to be President as Geraldine Ferraro or Obama himself. And blow off people saying any of the above picks is suicidal.
He does that, and the main impact on voters will be that McCain believes that executive experience and seasoned leadership doesn’t matter. And subconsciously, constantly think if 72-year old McCain goes down or his cancer comes back….about how fit his VP is for leading America and managing it’s domestic and foreign affairs.
