No way for Frist. But good question as to his whereabouts.

Romney spent $35 million on his campaign and isnt even trying to recoup the money.

he could be doing that now but is out working hard for McCain. Good people for Romney.

McCain holds Romney in contempt. That's the one thing McCain is right about.

Romney was the GOP's money pick. Romney wanted to keep that American money flowing upline to a handful of folks….just like God intended.

Largebill:

Agreed about Palin. There is some speculation as to her long-term plans in AK politics given her son's disabilities.

Beware:

Go peddle that trash somewhere else.

We need fiscal leadership, Business experience, This election must be about Survival, Not race, gender, age, conservative, or liberal as Oprah and the Media would have it be. Romney is the Best Choice to help us steer a course to Survival. With either Hillary or Obama there will be No Survival. For Sure Beware Obama !

Ben,

Couple points:

Sarah Palin is no longer expecting. She gave birth a few weeks ago. Her child was born with Downs Syndrome and I would assume she has enough responsibilities not to take on campaigning.
Bobby Jindal - While I agree he is not likely the choice, it is funny to hear lack of experience as a reason since he has more experience than the presumptive Dem nominee.
Burr is a sharp individual, but I think McCain need someone with executive experience rather than another senator.
For both McCain and Obama the VP pick is the first big decision. You are right that the media will swoon over whichever clown Obama picks.

No one associated with the Bush administration or name.
I can't imagine Colin Powell would be interested

I think McCain needs to go with someone moderate, younger and from a state with big electoral power. Help to draw in some of the undecided, independents and even moderate Democrats.
