Eric Cantor for McCain's VP?

From One Jerusalem:

Friends,

 

Today, dozens of news outlets reported that Congressman Eric Cantor is being closely vetted by Senator McCain as the Vice Presidential nominee.  Arutz 7 pointed to Eric's speech at a One Jerusalem event in November stressing his commitment to Israel's security and to Jerusalem remaining the united, undivided capitol of the State of Israel.  A video of this speech can be seen here.

 

Friends and Supporters of Congressman Cantor have started an online movement calling on Senator McCain to nominate Eric.  We can help make this a reality by encouraging our readers to visit the site, sign up, join the Facebook group, and send a note to Senator McCain.  This is our opportunity to shake up the race and help a great friend of Israel.

 

I hope you will join us in this effort.

 

Best,

Allen Roth

Personally I wanted to see Bobby Jindal as McCain's VP, however the media is reporting that Jindal TOOK HIMSELF OUT OF THE RUNNING.  Frankly all potential candidates SAY they are not running, but most would accept the position if it was offered:

Indian-American Governor of Louisiana, Bobby Jindal, is no longer in the latest shortlist of Republicans believed to be in contention to be John McCain's running mate in his race for the White House.

The Republicans believed to be in contention for the Vice President's post now includes former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney, former House of Representative from Ohio, Rob Portman and Minnesota Governor Tim Pawlenty.

A Virginia congressman Eric Cantor is reportedly the latest entrant to the shortlist and among those getting "thorough vetting" by McCain's team, CNN reported.

"The work on Cantor and other potential running mates is mostly done," the report said. (continue reading)
