Graham: Romney "Very Much A Contender" For VP

Former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney (R) is "very much a contender" to be Sen. John McCain's running mate, according to one of McCain's closest allies on Capitol Hill.

Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.), who earlier this year told The Hill that McCain's vice presidential pick should be someone the Arizona senator "feels comfortable with," said Romney fits that description.

"I think he's very much a contender for the job," Graham said. "They have a good relationship. That's all I'll say."

Will he take the oath of office on his magic diapers?

Will Marriotts PayPerViewPorn, Inc. cater?

Out of thousands of Republicans, they couldn't find ONE NORMAL PERSON?

McCain needs the backing of the religious right BADLY, so look for him to pick whoever is the best at "Jesus speak"

So true! What's gunna happen when he announces his vp, and it just flops into the media pool, and nobody notices?

[LittleSanityLeft]

Stop already! Everyone knows it's going to be Romney. There hasn't bee a real contender for McCain's vp spot for over a month now. It's pretty much always been Romney.

Loser! Another Elitist for the Rethuglicans! Ask Ma. how they felt baout Mitt!

[AdamND]

I think McCain will pick Sen. Lindsey Graham

[schicklett3]

Does anyone really care who John McCain chooses? LOL

[CrittersRTasty]

Wait, I've got it!!
If Obama were to tap Romney as his VP candidate, he could try to appeal to the conservative demographic too!! Then he could reverse his position whenever he wanted to and just Say "Well, Mitt talked me into it...."

Romney? for VP? This is so excellent - we might have had more fun with Giulia -- But Romney will be a picnic too!

I'll start - there's nothing genuine about this man and he's an animal abuser.

I agree! I'll be so glad to have him back to play with. Can't tell you. I thought Jindal would have also been a blast, but Romney sort of one-ups him because Plastic Boy and his Jesus Jammies will be so hated by the evangelicals. Yet another chasm for the grand oil party!

Plus mittens can say the most outrageous things and completely believe them with his heart, mind and soul. Mor mon ism, anyone?

OMG what a yawn. If it is Romney it would not be a good idea to announce it this week because Romney is not exactly new or exciting so if he is trying to steal Obama's thunder, this won't work.
