@DKarol @speechboy71 Politics ain't beanbag. Always thought McCain picked Palin as a temper tantrum after he couldn't get the VP he wanted in Lieberman. — PolitiTweet.org

@speechboy71 McCain's strongest political suit in 2008 was his reputation as a maverick. Picking Lieberman, who supports abortion rights, would have triggered a big walkout at the GOP Convention. And cemented McCain's image as a maverick. — PolitiTweet.org

@DKarol @speechboy71 Of course, McCain never cared about abortion other than to check the box. And exactly where would social conservatives have gone in 2008? Not to the Democrats. It would have been incredibly high-risk, but so intriguing. — PolitiTweet.org
