My money is on Haley Barbour, Gov. of Miz’sippi.

I met Liddy once. He was on a lecture tour he did with Timothy Leary. They clearly had quite the rapport, leading me to conclude they were both full of shit.

A friend offered me 50 bucks to go up to Liddy, offer him my Zippo*, and ask him to do the “arm over an open flame” thing. I declined (wisely, I think).

*A lighter, not a euphemism.

It’s a tough one. Two different types of traitors, North and Liddy. I’d take G. Gordon in a fist-fight ‘tween ‘em, that’s for sure.

But for pure concentrated villainy I’d go with Ollie and the “contra supply network” (wink wink).

Oh please. Ollie North is just a G. Gordon Liddy wannabe.

I’m told that Ms. Smith was attractive once.

I think he’ll choose Liddy–G. Gordon Liddy. Who else would do as much to shore up his support on the right? Who else could wipe away their nagging suspicions that despite his pandering, McCain has less contempt for the law than they do?

Ollie North?

I think the GOP has become congenitally unable to pick anybody but rich white Christianist (Baptist preferred) males.

What will happen is exactly what has happened: They will pretend to float the names of women and minorities as Veep. In the end, they’ll pick some hyper-conservative war-hawk from a deep, deep red state, probably a governor.

Exactly.
Floating names of women & minorities for McCain’s veep is a sham. It is a message to what’s left of the center - We’re not that crazy! In the end, there will be a rich, white, protestant old man as McCain’s veep. Too many of the faithful would never vote for a woman or minority, even if their politics are to the right of Ghengis Khan.

Yeah, it took me a minute to remember which Liddy that was. G. Gordon is such a natural for the spot.
