Vol 6 and 7 gave me a clear picture of the two of McCains VP (maybe) choices, without a bunch of gobbly gook thrown in the mix. But I am not so sure about them, they are probably on the bottom of the list. I would like to see a women like the Sec. of State C. Rice as a choice. Andrew is she on McCains VP list? Chuck Hasker&lt;/p&gt;

Lieberman is too liberal a choice for his vp beyond the pro-choice issue. Right now McCain has the support of most Christian Evangelicals . The choice of a pro-choice vp will really rock the boat with this group. He can't afford to do that because he is behind Obama in the polls. He might be catching up to him but he is still behind and he needs to hold onto the voters he has. I'll still vote for him as the lesser of two evils (even with an evil vp) but I won't give him any more money and the yard sign comes down if he chooses Ridge. Pro-choice means a tolerance for killing little children and such people will endure the wrath of God and rightly so. If he does choose Ridge, Obama will win the election. McCain really ain't too bright! This news is very sad to me and many others. &lt;/p&gt;

Tom Ridge? The abortion-rights supporting former ex-governor of reliably Democratic and blue collar Pennsylvania?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Let's get a rundown on the guy who might inadvertently tip the scales for Barack Obama: &lt;a rel="nofollow" target="_new" href="http://www.236.com/news/2008/08/14/i_want_to_be_number_two_tom_ri_8288.php"&gt;http://www.236.com/news/2008/08/14/i_want_to_be_number_two_tom_ri_8288.php&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

We'll just make sure that they are for or against legal abortions and take our chances on illegitimate wars, health care for all, the economy, the deficit, the overspending of the federal government without adequate taxation to cover the expenditures and the shredding of individual rights under the guise of an act misnamed the Patriot Act. All those little things that don't really matter. Just abortion. That's all that matters. That's how we got the present resident of the white house.&lt;/p&gt;
