If it's Lugar, I'll plotz

Richard Lugar's voting record.

What is Barack Obama looking for in a running mate?

Obama tells TIME he wants someone who is “not about ego, self-aggrandizement, getting their name in the press” and tells CBS News he wants someone he would “feel comfortable with.”

Obama at Saddleback: “There are people like … Dick Lugar, a Republican, who I’d listen to on foreign policy.”

On CNN this past Sunday: BLITZER: “Do you agree with Senator Lieberman that Senator Obama has not put the country first?”

LUGAR: “No. I think that was clearly a partisan statement at a rally. I respect everybody their opinions in a political campaign, but that’s all that was.”

No. Nonono.
