U.S. News & World Report's James Pethokouki writes:

"Mike Huckabee, the former governor of Arkansas and defeated contender for the GOP presidential nomination, is currently at the top of John McCain's short list for a running mate. At least that's the word from a top McCain fundraiser and longtime Republican moneyman who has spoken to McCain's inner circle."

He buttresses this with three arguments for why Huck would be a potentially good veep pick.
