Lamar Again Thrown In The Veep Talk Mix

By Kleinheider Posted on May 12, 2008 at 8:46 am

For the second time in recent weeks, Lamar Alexander is mentioned as a possible Vice-Presidential nominee for John McCain:

On the Republican side, some of the stronger ones include Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice and former homeland security secretary Tom Ridge. Among the GOP senators warranting serious consideration are former education secretary Lamar Alexander of Tennessee and Lindsey Graham of South Carolina—not to mention Joe Lieberman of Connecticut, a Democrat who often breaks with his party on issues such as Iraq.

As P-squared has mentioned before, while it is extremely unlikely such an offer would be extended to or accepted by Alexander it certainly would make Tennessee Republican politics quite interesting.
