I'm looking WAY down the rabbit hole now and trying to think who Mittens will pick as his VP when he takes over for McSame.

4. Maybe that will be piyush jindals' in.
In my way of thinking about republicans that deal may already be done. I hope so since jindal (in the hands of a good anti-jindal campaigner) could be trashed unmercifully by his own words and actions and writings with very little effort.

6. Ugh... gotta be Huckabee, don't you think?
He's gotta bring in the Christian element for Mittens. If Americans are nervous about a man RUMORED to be muslim, they will also be nervous about a man who is DEFINITELY a Moron... I mean Mormon.

7. Hey, maybe Barack will run against (no candidate)
I'm sick of seeing that bastard's name on the ballot here in bright red DuPage County. Time for turnabout!

Come to think of it, that's who Barack beat out for his Senate seat. Well, ok, it was Alan Keyes, but what's the difference? Maybe the thugs will put Keyes in when McLame bails!
:rofl:

11. Is he talking about now or if McCain wins and is forced to resign due to illness?
If he's already in office I think it would be Jeb. If that isn't what the OP is talking about, it's not going to happen. McCain will not be replaced as the GOP nominee in this election.

13. The severed, unholy head of Nelson Rockefeller
John McCain gives up the nomination--to Mitt Romney, no less!--when they pry it from his cold, dead hands.

15. He won't take over
If McCain really had medical issues, it would be best just to let him continue on and just lose. A second candidate would have a HELL of a time raising money and would still probably lose. It would waste too much money.

17. The skin cancer issue won't cause him to drop out unless
he has metastatic melanoma. Bad news for him if that's it. Otherwise he will stay in.
