My Pick For McCain’s VP

There’s been a lot of speculation in the media recently that Republican nominee John McCain is poised to pick his running mate, perhaps as early as this week, and while the speculation may be just that, I just wanted to take a minute to make my prediction. My pick as John McCain’s running mate is Governor Tim Pawlenty of Minnesota.

In the interest of being totally honest, my first inclination would have been to predict Louisian Governor Bobby Jindal being McCain’s choice, but given Jindal’s statement that he would not accept the position if offered, Governor Pawlenty would be my obvious next choice.

  1. Realistically though, this has to be Pawlenty’s best chance to advance his political career. He’s been a staunch support of John McCain since before McCain was the Republican frontrunner, and while he’s far from charismatic, at least he’s younger than McCain.
