Votemaster is reporting that the rumor is that McCain will announce his VP candidate tomorrow.....Any guess's..?
The buzz now is that John McCain is having a big powwow at his Arizona home today to introduce his VP choice to Republican insiders today in preparation for an announcement tomorrow. That may or may not be true, but it makes at least a little sense. If McCain waits until next week, he will be competing with the olympics for air time. If he waits until after the olympics, he will be competing with the oncoming Democratic National Convention.
