Pawlenty, Romney Said to Be Out
Update 7:39 PDT: NBC News’ Kelly O’Donnell has confirmed that McCain has picked Palin.
No less a source than Fox News says this morning that Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin is en route to Ohio this morning, and is likely to be John McCain choice to be his running mate.
Fox also reports that former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney is out of the running. Meanwhile, Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty told a local radio station this morning that he will not be in Ohio later today when John McCain names his vice presidential running mate.
About Palin, Fox reports that “a charter aircraft from Anchorage had arrived in Dayton, Ohio, where McCain has scheduled a noon ET rally to announce his choice.”
Of course, because the source is Fox News, the story about Palin could be disinformation sent out by the McCain campaign in order to create confusion and embarrass the “liberal media.”
Pathetic … Absolutely Pathetic . . .
How can McCain do something so ridiculous and idiotic that is an insult to voter’s intelligence, particularly women? He doesn’t have a clue as to how badly this country needs fixin’.
McCain has insulted every single American by making a joke out of our Presidential election. He’s opted for a cheap publicity stunt instead picking a qualified running mate. He’s a shell of a man who has sold every last scrap of his dignity to extremists. The John McCain that suffered for American ideals in Nam wouldn’t stop to spit on the pathetic coward that’s currently running for President
