McCain is going to try desperately to change the subject after Obama's blockbuster speech. He's throwing the "Hail Mary" pass by announcing his VP on later today. Obama announced his v.p. by text message. Wondering if John McCain will by issuing a telegraph. (Note from John: Just me, or does he sound like the groundhog?)
Possible foreshadowing from Liz Sidoti (who, as we know, is very close to McCain, as is her boss, Ron Fournier):
Republican presidential candidate John McCain decided on a running mate early Thursday, and top prospects waited to hear from the nominee-in-waiting.We've seen what happens when Tim Pawlenty teams up with George Bush. Imagine what Pawlenty and McCain will do to the rest of America:
"There's nothing really new to report on Senator McCain's decision. I think we'll all hear from him shortly and hopefully we'll be able to move forward together," Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty told the Associated Press in Minneapolis. Earlier in Denver and without explanation, Pawlenty called off an AP roundtable interview as well as other media appearances at the site of the Democratic National Convention.
