Rice on the side.
By Shelley Emling | Friday, May 23, 2008, 09:14 AM
The verdict is in. If the British people had their way, John McCain would choose Condoleezza Rice as his running mate.
In an online poll conducted this week by the London Times, readers were asked to vote amongst 10 of the most likely choices (at least according to the Times). Here are the choices: Haley Barbour, Charlie Crist, Carly Fiorina, Lindsay Graham, Bobby Jindal, Joe Lieberman, Sarah Palin, Tim Pawlenty, Condoleezza Rice, and Mitt Romney.
The poll closed at midnight and Condi came in first with 33 percent of the vote. In second place was Mitt with 13 percent, followed by Sarah Palin with 11 percent of the vote. Both Carly and Joe received 10 percent.
The paper itself argued that Carly would make a great choice, giving the candidate the economics knowledge he lacks.
