Vice President Palin??
On Drudge right now:
Will this be another false alarm, like the Obama-Bayh bumpersticker? Maybe -- and indeed, Drudge doesn't say anything about where the button image is coming from.
But, unlike the Obama-Bayh fakery, the McCain-Palin button actually looks genuine. [UPDATE/CORRECTION: As noted above, the button is from GOPShoppe.com, which made similar buttons for all the veep contenders. It's been around since at least March. It's not real.]
Moreover, there's a flight plan to back it up. And between Drudge's "NO ROMNEY," Politico's report that it isn't Pawlenty, and yesterday's report that it'd be a "traditional" pick -- i.e., no Lieberman -- Palin seems as good a guess as any.
Seems like a Palin pick would eviscerate McCain's ability to use the "not ready to lead" argument, but hey, what do I know?
