Now that Mitt Romney has endorsed John McCain (I think a bit of a surprise that he chose to do it at this particular time), does that mean that Romney has a chance to be named as veep, for a McCain-Romney ticket?
Some bloggers seem to be indicating so (http://www.mymanmitt.com/mitt-romney/2008/02/romney-to-endorse-mccain-today-3pm-in.asp), but I'm not sure that he's particularly on McCain's radar. After Romney's news conference announcing his endorsement, the Boston Globe (http://www.boston.com/news/nation/articles/2008/02/15/romney_throws_his_support_to_erstwhile_foe/) reported that neither man answered questions about whether they'd run together.
Realistically, McCain would win the nomination even without Romney's support. So, this measure of uniting the Republican party is probably more with an eye on Romney running in 2012 or beyond.
