Romney's Vice-Presidential Padering Efforts In Full Swing...

So, the latest from the Willard Romney flip-flop express is, that Old Willard has made it to the elimination round of the John McCain V.P. sweepstakes (Dear God, no!) and has started his own PAC that according to a spokesman, "will be the organization that will allow Gov. Romney to stay politically active on behalf of the candidates and causes that he cares about." Like making himself the Vice Presidential nominee and continuing to hate poor people.

As part of his new duties of sucking up to major donors as well as Sen. McCain, Willard is going to be a busy boy in the coming weeks: He is hosting President Bush on May 28 at his home in Deer Valley, Utah for a Victory 2008 fundraiser. He's raising money for Rep. Tom Feeney in Florida on the 30th and then jets to Jacksonville for the Federation of Black Republicans convention (Wait, what? They know they're getting Willard, right?). In addition, he'll serve as a surrogate for McCain at two Republican conventions: in Colorado and in Texas. And he'll campaign with and raise money for Sen. McCain on June 11.

McCain veepstakes team: Don't say that we didn't warn you about letting Willard drive the "Straight Talk Express:"
