I hope that McCain won't choose Pawlenty because that indicates a boring campaign strategy.  I hope he won't pick Romney because I don't like Romney.  Most of his other choices are clowns for various reasons.

Sucks! Sad

I actually think McCain has far better  VP choices than Obama.  He has a wide range of VP's, from those that are ideologically similar to him (Crist) to more 'base' candidates like Thune.

If McCain chooses Pawlenty I will predict his loss instantly, because it will be indicative of him not being a risk-taker.

And, much as 2004 was all about Bush, a campaign being "all about" a candidate makes it pretty difficult to defeat that candidate.

...assuming that candidate doesn't make mistakes.  Obama's campaign is pretty much the least gaffe-prone (per capita of media coverage) campaign I think in the history of memory.  The 'bitter' comments occurred in an off-the-record setting.
