    McCain Picks Pawlenty?

    Posted:
    08/28/08
    Sources are reporting that Sen. John McCain has chosen Minnesota Governor Tim Pawlenty as his running mate. McCain and Pawlenty will appear together at a rally in Dayton, Ohio, where Pawlenty will be officially introduced as the Republican running mate.

    Pawlenty is a second term governor who won reelection in 2006 by a slim margin in a bad year nationally for Republicans. He is also the national co-chair for the McCain campaign, and was an early supporter. He was scheduled to appear at the Minnesota State Fair tomorrow, at the same time that McCain was holding the Ohio rally. But sources say that Pawlenty has canceled all interviews and appearances, and has turned over his scheduling duties to the McCain campaign.

    Until the final announcement is made, all reports on the selection are conjecture. But the swift cancellation of all of Pawlenty's appearances does appear to indicate that he will be the pick.
