McCain to Announce VP Pick this Week

My friends, today I would like to announce my candidate for Vice President of the United States. Some people say I am too old, too out of touch, possible suffering dementia. My campaign needs young blood from a younger generation to re-assure younger voters that they will have a seat at the table. My friends, it is with great pride that I introduce the next president of the United States, Harvey the 6 foot invisible rabbit.
 
Wouldn't matter if he had that "Jesus" dude on his team...

The man needs to take his check and retire.

He is WAY too old, and senile to ever get a room in the White House.

Go home McSame.

ETA: his latest blunder? Iraq borders Pakistan? Come on Grandpa, hang up the guns...

Maybe it's timed to distract from the ObamaMessiah Media Rapture tour but I'm a little surprised he isn't waiting until the convention. Is Romney still the consensus front runner?

I don't know what people elsewhere think, but Intrade gives him about 40% odds, which is way more than anyone else. (Although it's hard to call 40% a consensus, even if he's kicking everyone else's ass.)
 
This gives Obama the ability to adjust his selection accordingly. That's one of the few ups McCain had on Obama. McCain's giving it away for what? To grab headlines during Obama's Iraq trip? Smells like desperation to me.

Of course, maybe this puts some perspective on the TV evangelical switchover recently reported. Maybe it's going to be Huckabee in the spot after all. Mittens is going to be mad.
 
To be fair, this is around the time they usually pick, right? Didn't Kerry announce his on July 20th last time around?

I'd put the odds of this really happening pretty low. There is no reason for desperation. The only way I see it making sense is if McCain decides to pick a woman; that could make it seem like "me too" if Obama then chooses a gal for his running mate.

The piece is just credited to Evans-Novak Political Report with no byline. If it's from Bob Novak, that would mean something. But I assume I don't have to tell you that Human Events is a very suspect source; they publish some real idiots over there, like Jerry Corsi and Ann Coulter.
 
It's desperation.

Per NBC’s Andrea Mitchell, Obama has arrived in Baghdad and he spoke with Maliki. The headline after their photo-op: Maliki’s spokesman said afterwards (in English) that the Iraqi vision is for all US troops to be out of Iraq by 2010. And with this news -- as well as the Der Spiegel interview, in which Maliki seemed to back Obama’s withdrawal plan -- the trip seems like it has already been a PR success for the Illinois senator. If he could, Obama should probably come home from right now. But he won’t. After visiting Iraq, his overseas trip will take him to Jordan, Israel, Germany (where he will speak at the Victory Column, not the Brandenburg Gate), France, and the United Kingdom. How bad was the Maliki interview for the McCain campaign? As one GOP strategist who occasionally provides advice to the campaign told the Atlantic’s Marc Ambinder: “We’re fu&$@#.” It's hard to imagine the trip can get better at this point for Obama.

Robert Novak on Fox News: I Feel So Dirty!
"I've since have been told by certain people that this was a dodge, they were trying to get a little publicity to rain on Obama's campaign,'' Novak told Fox. "That's pretty reprehensible if it's true, but we'll find out in a few days."
