According to the Houston Chronicle, “the two high-profile Republicans are lifelong friends, despite having campaigned against each other in the GOP primaries in which McCain ultimately prevailed. When Giuliani bowed out of the race, he immediately endorsed McCain.” Could Giuliani, the so-called No. 1 Yankee fan, become the No. 2 on the Republican ticket? Prior to the game, McCain, Giuliani and Giuliani’s wife, Judith, took to the field and spoke with Yankees Manager Joe Girardi and Giuliani’s name also comes up as a possible candidate for The former mayor claimed he was not actively seeking to become McCain’s running mate. He’s quoted by the Chronicle as saying, “you hear all kinds of stuff, but I’m not thinking about anything but helping to get him elected.

written by Old Red , July 21, 2008 If Guiliani is on the ticket McCain can forget about any support from the religious right. Even Clinton didn't stoop to not just having an affair but dumping his wife to move in with his mistress.

written by maximus , July 21, 2008 Old Red is right. The last thing Mccain is another moderate, Wall Street boot-licker on the ticket. The base needs to be energized. More than that, they need to be convinced that McCain actually cares about them. My suggestion - a conservative female as VP. Someone like Alaska's governor. Now that might excite conservative voters. Write comment
