One thing I have heard is that McCain will limit himself to one term.

I think he denied that the other day but come fall 2011, it may be a different story.

Of course he denies it now... and if he wins, he will likely continue to deny it until late 2011.  If he says he won't run, then he will go into office as a lame duck.

Note:
come fall 2011, it may be a different story.

Huh?  We already know that.  See this post for example:

https://uselectionatlas.org/FORUM/index.php?topic=81522.msg1687455#msg1687455

However, as that story implies, it sounds like McCain's running mate will actually appear with him at that rally in Dayton, which means there's a good chance the name will leak out tomorrow, as we see who's making plans to travel to Dayton.


And upstage the Obama speech?  Perish the thought.  Smiley

An announcement of McCain's running mate will not upstage the acceptance speech of the first African American nominated by a major party. It would just be a footnote.

yeah right, I'm sure the reason why people are tuning in is because he is black.

It will be a historic moment and would garner more attention, like it or not.

McCain picking an unknown two year Governor from Alaska would not upstage Obama.

Now I know for sure that you just don't have a roll of quarters in your pocket...
