McCain head fake

This is wishful thinking on my part, but if McCain really wanted to steal Obama’s thunder, I think he should pick Condoleezza Rice as his VP candidate. Frankly, I still like her better than any of the names currently bandied about, and it would capitalize on PUMA sentiments.

We’ll see.

[UPDATED 08/29/08 -- 0645 MDT]

It appears that both Pawlenty and Romney are out — which I think is a good thing. McCain is really going to need to shake things up, and for that he needs a woman and/or a minority. I still hope it’s Rice, but there are rumblings that it may be Gov. Sarah Palin of Alaska.
