Arizona Senator John McCain locked up the Republican nomination Tuesday night when he swept the contests in Ohio, Texas, Rhode Island, and Vermont being held that day. With that, he has now grabbed the number of delegates he needs for the nomination, and the focus now shifts to who McCain will choose to be his vice-presidential running-mate in a decision that will probably be announced in the early summer.
At least 25 or so individuals are being thrown around as speculated choices. His eventual choice will likely have to appear much younger than him, appeal more to the conservative base, and will have to be believed to be able to step in the President's role if necessary. On the left, I have posted the 20 names most put up as likely candidates, while at the same time more serious candidates than some that are being published. I would encourage you to vote who you would prefer to see McCain pick. Out of those 20, chances are very high that one of them will be the Senator's choice to fill the number-two spot on the GOP ticket this election cycle.
