McCain's VP Madness, Round Two
CQ launched a NCAA-like tournament to help Republican presidential nominee John McCain pick his running mate. Two Texans were featured as prospects in Round One -- US Senator Kay Bailey Hutchison, and Governor Rick Perry. How did they fare in voting?
Kay Bailey Hutchison moves to Round Two, while Rick Perry stays behind. CQ editors made the pairings based on their analysis, and more than 6,000 people cast votes in the first round of balloting.
Round One Results
Kay Bailey Hutchison (69%) vs. Rudy Guiliani (30%)
Sarah Palin (59%) vs. Rick Perry (40%)
the mighty brownback lives!
