Applesauce
Pat Cunningham offers an unabashedly liberal perspective on national politics. A note of caution: The language gets a litttle salty on some of the sites to which this blog links. So, don’t say you weren’t warned. By the way, this blog’s name is inspired by the Will Rogers quote, “All politics is applesauce.”

Pundit says McCain will announce this week that Romney is his running mate — but I doubt it

Jed Lewison predicts HERE that John McCain will name Mitt Romney as his vice presidential choice — perhaps as soon as Wednesday, in an effort to steal some public attention from Barack Obama’s trip abroad.

I seriously doubt it, both in terms of timing and in picking Romney. But I have no specific guesses myself on either score. I just think the Mittster has too much baggage and not enough gravitas.

    Of course the libs are promoting Romney as Veep. They want McCain to lose. For the same reason they conspicuously downplay Sarah Palin!

    “I just think the Mittster has too much baggage and not enough gravitas.”

    How on earth is it possible to compose that sentence while endorsing the candidate with the smallest record of accomplishment–unless doing legal work for one of Chicago’s biggest slumlords now counts as something worthwhile.

    Let’s compare:
    Mitt Romney
    Barack Obama
