CBS has a rundown of possible John Sidney McCain running mates. I've only included the summaries for 3, but you can go here and see all of them.
![]() | ![]() | Mitt Romney | Bio The former Massachusetts governor has emerged as the heavy favorite to be McCain's running mate. While there are some concerns the former rivals wouldn't get along, that may not matter and Romney brings some bona fide advantages to the ticket, especially in raising money and ability to compete in Michigan. Added to that is that Romney has been an effective surrogate for McCain at fundraisers and on cable TV. |
![]() | ![]() | Tim Pawlenty | Bio The Minnesota governor appeared with McCain yesterday where the candidate called him "a wonderful friend and a great leader." But Pawlenty also told reporters that he had not been asked for information from the campaign. "I'm not aware that I'm under consideration," he said. That doesn't mean he won't be asked in the future, but for now the buzz is with Romney. |







And number 10.... ::drum roll::....
![]() | ![]() | Joe Lieberman | Bio Al Gore's running mate has become McCain's "bipartisan wingman" as he continues to be a key surrogate on the trail and joined him last week in Colombia and Mexico. But while the two senators are obviously of one mind on foreign policy, would the rank-and-file accept his positions on domestic matters? As Harry Reid pointed out to The Hill yesterday, "Anytime we have a problem here, with the exception of Iraq, Joe Lieberman's with us." |
