It seems to be the day for rumors of VP choices. You all know that there have been rumors of a pro-choice running mate for McCain and now it appears that the pro-choice balloon has been floated not for Lieberman or Ridge but for Giuliani.
After thinking that they were going to get Lieberman as their VP, I bet Giuliani is looking pretty good about now :-) Maybe that was their intention, pretty smart if it was.

Personally, I'd prefer John Edwards to make another run as McCain's VP.
Let's see.
First Michelle pronounces Fred Thompson as presidential material. Bet he'd cut down crime, huh.
Now Michelle pronounces Giuliani as looking good for VP, I suppose to balance the Republican ticket tranvestite-non-transvestite. Why on earth did Beliefnet hire this blogger?
Let's see now, you think that a pro-life adulterer and a pro-choice adulterer make a good "Christian Values" ticket. Boy talk about hypocrisy!
Conservative values have really dropped to an all time low sense I was a child. And by the way, in Jesus's own words, "God hates divorce." Look that verse up before you vote.

Show me where ANYONE said their support of McCain or their possible support of Giuliani would "make a good "Christian Values" ticket". YOU CAN'T and YOU WON'T...again, because it DOESN'T EXIST.
Unfortunately your density is so grave I must state the obvious. People vote for political leaders, including Christians, for a myriad of reasons. The moral perfection of a candidate is not the criterion, but you know that, you just want to pretend that it is for Christians and create a false argument.
That is of course, one of the PROBLEMS of you LEFTY LIBS. You are reduced to LYING about what others in order to invent a world that doesn't exist so you have something on which to base your arguments.
No one said that, you can't find it being said here and you won't. Instead of playing in a world of PAPER DOLLS in order to create arguments against statements that have never been made I suggest LEFTY LIBS maybe your mom or dad can take the time to help you explore the grown up world of reality. Next Please!
"Show me where ANYONE said their support of McCain or their possible support of Giuliani would 'make a good "Christian Values" ticket'. YOU CAN'T and YOU WON'T...again, because it DOESN'T EXIST."
now, that's something we can agree with. nobody in their right mind would say that mccain or 9iu11iani have the credentials for a christian or family or moral values ticket.
paul, you're right to point out the hypocrisy of the media and of the religious right who never miss a chance to lambaste clinton and now edwards for their indiscretions, but when it's one of their own, the religious right silently looks the other way. we remember the shrill cries from religious conservatives with clinton on the stand. where's that equal treatment for mccain? remember in 2000 when evangelicals came out from under their rocks to vote for bush based on "moral values"? barf. they're not the issues voters, they're the "good feelers" voters. bush fit their mold, said what they wanted to hear and made them feel good about themselves. he certainly didn't win based on his dismal record.
paul, too many religious conservatives have it branded into their psyche that a democrat can't be a devout christian. they think because obama's black, has a strange name, and his dad was muslim, he must be a muslim, too. they can't pull the lever for obama but they can hold their noses and pull the lever for mccain or 9iu11iani even though they've both been unfaithful to the individuals that they vowed to love and cherish till death did they part. how can they trust their promises to millions of people they don't even know? they try to paint obama as a celebrity by linking him through nothing but imagery to 2 female blonds known for their silliness when he is nothing like either of them and has no ties to them... this, after they elected reagan, schwarzenegger, sonny bono, et cetera.
