You read it here first

Don't be surprised if John McCain does not choose either Mitt Romney or Tim Pawlenty as his VP running mate. Sources close to the Ohio Republican Party believe McCain's choice will be former Congressman Rob Portman from Ohio's second district. Portman represented the Cincinnati area and is wildly popular in the state. Portman's selection may also have an affect in Indiana and Kentucky. He's not mentioned much in the traditional media, but his selection would make a lot of sense and sure up a state McCain badly needs. Of note, no Republican has ever won the White House without carrying Ohio.

There are 72 days until the presidential election. And, it's been 2,739 days since there's been a terrorist attack on US soil. Good day and God bless!

I really hope it is Portman. He is a sharp guy and would be a GREAT choice. Then in 2012 I would like a Portman/Jindal ticket. My personal dream team.
