Out on a Limb


I'm going to go out on a limb with a political prediction. Should know tomorrow how this turns out. I think John Mc Cain is going to pick a woman as his running mate. A Texan, Senator Kay Bailey Hutchinson is my guess. I was leaning toward our Governor, but don't think he is well enough known around the country and we are a state with a smaller number of votes.

Hurricane Gustav is taking aim at the Gulf Coast and may hit New Orleans on Labor Day, the day the Republican Convention starts. He may need to do something to upstage a hurricane. Picking a woman would get attention. Oprah and Caroline Kennedy are already alligned with the opposition. There are other women who are republican but it would be hard to resist having a Texan on the ticket.
