52. If Smirk's approval ratings were higher, that would be a lock, however

McCain must know that right now, Smirk is polling in the toilet, but other Republicans (especially McCain) are polling to wipe the floor with the Dems in 2008. McCain agreeing to be Smirk's VP might destroy his chances to run in 2008... or... it might get Smirk's poll numbers back to "reasonable" or even "positive", at least for awhile.

Since the far right is hacked at Smirk over Miers, I'm not sure there's any pluses for McCain other than the supposed plus of running as the sitting VP, which is actually a minus...

Interesting question (the same way a train wreck is interesting)...
