Kay Bailey Hutchinson then?

:shrug:

What is they wanted a Veep party and nobody came?

1. Sounds like it

After the speech by Obama last night I don't blame them for staying home.

Still, I like your thought on Hutchinson. If would help McCain reinforce the misconception that he is a maverick, but I doubt she would bring much to the table.

2. Another lap dog for the Boy King with all the charisma of a lump of mud.

The repugs really want her to run for Texas gov. when that comes around again, but they're probably desperate about now. Maybe.

3. That's probably their best choice, actually...

I hope they don't make it. Sarah Palin would not be scary, as she would completely undercut the "Obama isn't ready" attacks.

4. Hutchison wants TX Governor -

Surely she won't dance with McCain.

5. God, I hope so!

Twenty years ago, when a bank failed in Texas, Kay and her husband Ray Hutchison were on a note for $10 million. As I recall, they ended up settling it for $1 million, and skated on $9 million.

The president was GHW Bush.

Kay has a shot at being Texas governor, but if she runs for VP, that shot probably goes away, as the national vetting will be more damaging to her.
