There has been a lot of speculation about who will be John Kerry's running mate. Apparently, he wanted John McCain, who as a loyal Republican spurned his overtures.
I think McCain made the wrong decision. The smartest move would've been for McCain to accept the nomination, and then when it was final and the campaigning really started, he could start to act completely insane and blow the whole thing for Kerry.
It might end his political career, but he's getting old, and what a way to go out. And it would serve Kerry right. Asking McCain to be your running mate is like putting one of Saddam's generals in charge of part of the US invasion plans. Even if McCain played it straight, Kerry would not be able to control him. The Republicans can't even control him.
I think Kerry should ask Sean Combs to be his Veep.
