Veepstakes

Fascinating news that's breaking about all the leading GOP vice presidential contenders gathering in Dayton tonight for tomorrow's big unveiling.

This may be a big diversionary tactic, to confuse the media and fuel the speculation --- in which case the mission is already being accomplished.

But I can't help wondering if McCain may have something even bigger in mind. Wouldn't it be remarkable if he used the event to name not just his veep...but the entire cabinet as well. Mitt Romney as Secretary of the Treasury. Joe Lieberman as Secretary of State. Mike Huckabee as Secretary of Health and Human Services. Rudy Giuliani as Director of Homeland Security. And so on.

Talk about grabbing attention going into one's convention!
