McCain Camp Vetting Cantor As Running Mate
Virginia Rep. Eric Cantor, the chief deputy minority whip in the House, has been asked by the McCain campaign for personal documents so they can look into the possibility of Cantor becoming McCain's running mate, the Associated Press reports.
Cantor and the McCain campaign wouldn't comment on the report, but the AP says a "Republican familiar with the conversations between Cantor and the McCain campaign said Cantor has been asked to turn over documents," though the source did not have specifics.
Cantor has been a strong McCain surrogate during the campaign, often offering harsh words about presumptive Democratic nominee Barack Obama. He is a pro-business representative from Virginia – a key swing-state and the home of potential Obama running mate Tim Kaine – though he is largely unknown outside the state.
Cantor, who is Jewish, has been a strong supporter of Israel. He is well liked by conservatives, a group McCain has had trouble shoring up.

We learned this week the anthrax was actually made and distributed from a US fort in Maryland. WHO IS THE WHITE HOUSE SOURCE? That person committed treason. McCain is sheilding a person who committed treason. Would that be your president, your vice president? WHO IS BEING SHEILDED BY McCAIN? WHAT IS THE TRAITOR''s NAME? False propaganda for the purpose of leading the US into war is a crime.

What does that mean, really?
McCain had just spoken about social security and how it might be funded by social security tax on persons making over $250K, but.... Rick Davis says, we must disregard that comment, as it was not approved.
What if the WHITE HOUSE phone rings at 3 AM? Who is going to answer? The campaign manager?
