A few thoughts

If Townhall.com commenters are any indication of the larger electorate (of course they are to some extent), then it would seem that there is no peace to be made with either Mike Huckabee's supporters or Mitt Romney's supporters if either were chosen as John McCain's running mate.

There are a lot of factors swirling in the Townhall comment-o-sphere. There are a few people for whom Romney is a power-hungry man who will stop at nothing to buy the presidency. My opinion is that this stems from a belief that rich people are inherently power-hungry or even evil. Mitt Romney and his appearance provides the perfect opportunity for these people to project their worst fears in one person.

Umm...Where is Mike Huckabee's name on the VP list. He did get more delegates after all than Mitt (276-254). O wait...this is a Romney site. Go John McCain!

Huckabee is not on the list, along with Palin, Gingrich, Marsha Blacksburn and others who are not not talked about. My list includes the most probable picks.
