This is kinda fun for news junkies.
According to VoteMatch, my Veep would would be Fred Thompson, a 65% match.
Here are the runners up.
Tom Tancredo 63%, Condoleezza Rice 60%, and Sam Brownback 58%.
I like Tancredo, but not as a Veep for McCain. He would serve largely as a distraction on the border issue, hurting the GOP's chances. McCain is still mending ties with the right on that issue, and unless he's ready to build the fence in the first 100 days, he shouldn't pick Tancredo.
Rice would be a great pick, trumping Biden on foreign policy and reminding voters that Bush appointed more African-Americans than any other President in history. I like Fred as a Presidential candidate, but I think Rice is the best choice overall.
I don't know enough about Brownback to opine.
ON the other end of the scale, Rudy Guiliani scored the lowest at 40%.
I like Rudy, and I think he would make a good Veep, but this poll is based strictly on the issues.
Other low scores were Jeb Bush 45% and Joe Lieberman 48%.
Here's how the Presidential candidates scored,
McCain 58%
Bob Barr (Libertarian) 50%
Chuck Baldwin (Constitution) 45%
Barak Obama 20%
Gloria La Riva (Party for Socialism and Liberation) 15%
Cynthia McKinney (Green) 15%
Brian Moore (Socialist) 10%
Ralph Nader (Independent) 10%
Hillary Clinton 10%
