Oh, goodie!

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.

That sound you just heard was me - running to make a donation to Bob Barr's campaign for the Libertairian Party Presidential nomination.

As for the logic of this Veep pick by Johnny Mac, I'll just focus on this...

Everyone got it yet? It's "lesser of 2 evils" all the way from now until November, folks.

Be afraid.
