Novak: McCain Veep Announcement To Come This Week
Conservative columnist Robert Novak is reporting that John McCain will announce his veep nom this week.
Novak: "The name of McCain's running mate has not been disclosed, but Mitt Romney has led the speculation recently."
Speculation to date has turned on the possibility that McCain wouldn't debut his veep pick until the end of the Dem convention -- an attempt to squash Barack Obama's expected post-Denver bounce. But the week has started poorly for McCain. While Obama meets with foreign leaders in Iraq and Afghanistan, Israel, Jordan and Europe, McCain is in Maine raising money with former President George H.W. Bush. The visuals beg a striking past/present comparison between the GOP and Dem noms.
A McCain veep announcement could distract from an overseas Obama trip that's garnering plenty of positive coverage at home and abroad.
Really? Does anybody care? I mean if McCain wants to make news he ought to .... Gotta go - sorry. There's more coverage of Obama on the tee-vee.

What? Who is this McCain? You mean there is someone besides Obamessiah running for president this year? Why hasn't the news reported this? Surely the New York Times would have published something about this. It must be a prank.
