I think he is going to pick a relatively unknown liberal Republican Governor.

> IF mccain picks bloomberg as veep, what do you do?

That would be bad, but it isn't even about to happen.

I think McCain is pretty much FORCED to pick Romney at this point. The BEST VP candidate for him would be Huckabee because Huckabee is smarter than Obama and more articulate and can actually THINK instead of just reading from a 'prompter.

But Romney brings credibility that Huckabee cannot bring.

I doubt Bloomberg is even on the list.

No matter who he picks, he looks better and better to me the more Obama bashes the U.S.

Still, I think McCain is going to pick Pawlenty.

He's your slime ball, what do you think about him now

From MSNBC:
From NBC's Jim Miklaszewski and Courtney Kube A U.S. military official tells NBC News they were making preparations for Sen. Barack Obama to visit wounded troops at the Landstuhl Medical Center at Ramstein, Germany on Friday, but "for some reason the visit was called off."
One military official who was working on the Obama visit said because political candidates are prohibited from using military installations as campaign backdrops, Obama's representatives were told, "he could only bring two or three of his Senate staff member, no campaign officials or workers." In addition, "Obama could not bring any media. Only military photographers would be permitted to record Obama's visit."
The official said "We didn't know why" the request to visit the wounded troops was withdrawn. "He (Obama) was more than welcome. We were all ready for him."

Nothing much. Bloomberg knows how to administrate, but that's a Chief of Staff kind of job.

McCain with Hillary as VP is better than anyone Obama with his Reverend Wright, terrorist William Ayers, and marxist Michelle MyBell could choose as VP.
