TruthWrangler, was that your intent in creating this question? I'm not being contentious, just trying to clarify things. I have a whole H$100 invested in Yes, so this is (not so) obviously of (less than) critical concern to me 8^)
I suppose I could have asked "Will either ... Pawlenty OR Sanford be the running mate with John McCain?" (and, on some level, I'm surprised I didn't ask it that way ... ) That is/was the meaning of my question.
I guess I've internalized the sentiment of the saying (source unknown) that when a potential running mate is asked, (usually by the press) "are you interested in running as Vice President, everyone says they're not interested [in the #2 position], but when they're actually asked, no one says 'no' ".
If either of these guys is asked and declines, then that would be bigger news than this question ever thought to capture! (and anyone predicting "yes" on that basis would also win)
