… and another thing

Bobby Jindal as VP?

July

Apparently not. The Louisiana governor told Fox News he was NOT interested in running as John McCain’s number two.

“Let me be clear: I have said in every private and public conversation, I’ve got the job that I want. And I’ll say again on air: I’m not going to be the vice presidential nominee or vice president. I’m going to help Senator McCain get elected, as governor of Louisiana,” Jindal said.

“I look forward to continuing to be governor of Louisiana. This is a once-in-a-lifetime chance to improve our state. We’ve cut six taxes but we’ve got a lot more work to do right here in Louisiana….I’ve never talked to the senator about the vice presidency or his thoughts on selecting the vice president.”

A colleague and I thought otherwise—especially when we saw his photos on McCain’s Web site. Oh well. It was fun while it lasted.

So who will it be? Here are picks from readers: Mitt Romney and Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin.

NOTE: Name corrected in the headline

Mitt Romney is the better candidate, he has better workings with BIG money matters than any other running mate at this time. McCain needs the east coast vote!!

His name is Jindal, not Vindal. Perhaps Noreen was confused by the spicy Indian dish, vindaloo. I bet Noreen is confused by shiny objects too.
