Rove franctically trying to convice Mccain not to pick Lieberman-GOP worries about convention crisis

[Politics_Guy25]

If he does pick Lieberman, GOP sources tell politico "it will blow up St. Paul."

I love it. A convention in chaos while Gustav terrorizes the Gulf coast. Poor GOP.

1. Head fake, innit?

Rove's in on it, of course.

I'd love to be wrong.

3. Of course, it's a head-fake. Oh how relieved the GOPers will be when it's not Lieberman. nt

2. Not even remotely possible

Not sure why the Lieberman as VP story stays alive.

4. Because most Americans haven't seen videos of Lieberman whispering into McCain's ear.

If they had, Joe wouldn't be their Trojan horse. As it is, this story gets pumped in order to make a Mittens seem double-plus "Pro-Life" and Christian-enough.

5. Misdirection..... head fake...

Call it what you will.


Not a real story.

6. Isn't Novak dead?

I mean, yes he's a vampire, but didn't someone drive a stake through his heart?
