McCain reminds me of an old 9 passenger station wagon we used to own. We could count on it to get us where we needed to go and had room to take others with us. McCain has a record of getting things done and including those from other parties to go along. But, like our old station wagon; McCain is getting older and doesn’t look quite as nice. Although I’m pretty sure he’s got a quite a few miles left; he still needs to choose a good VP as his backup. Rasmussen’s recent poll says the 3 top choices are Huckabee, Lieberman, and Romney.

Lieberman is a Democrat; so as a VP for the GOP, I’d consider him a “foreign” model and would walk on by. (Way too many years with family members earning their livings by working in factories to buy foreign!)
Romney reminds me of a slick sports car that during the primaries I figuratively “took for a test drive” by doing some research. The records showed the “transmission was slipping” because of some liberal stands on moral values. The “engine was knocking” due to “extremely slow job growth compared to the rest of the country.” The “mechanics” said they fixed the problems; but can I be sure? It’s obvious that Romneycare is still causing it to “burn lots of oil.”

Huckabee reminds me of my minivan. It’s a lot like our old station wagon; but a slightly updated model. Like McCain, Huckabee worked really hard and was willing to put partisanship aside to get things done as economically as possible. He also worked hard for equality of minorities.
I’m sold on McCain/Huckabee; because I sure can’t afford that brand new Obama model SUV! He not only wants us to make the car payments and supply the gas; he also expects us to provide room and board for everyone he decides to give a free ride.
