A Message for McCain: Nominate Mark Sanford for VP

Counting Mitt Romney out tomorrow is about as dicey as counting out the NY Giants last night ... Still, the odds are that McCain will have a good day tomorrow.
... Having said that, I just returned from a weekend with conservative leaders in Florida. Today, I'm heading to Houston for some more of that. In any event, one of the things I picked up over the weekend is that there is one move John McCain could make that would, to a certain extent, mollify many fiscal conservatives:
John McCain should pick South Carolina governor Mark Sanford as his running-mate ...
If you buy into the argument that McCain is too old to be president, this is one way to make sure that, unlike Bush, there is a young, conservative heir-apparent to the presidency that we can all rally around in the future.
