SarahP is going to end up stepping down as the VP nominee & we'll end up with another rich white conservative guy. There's no way she's going the distance. I'm willing to bet on it.
From the Huffington Post:
When she pulls out, Ms. Palin will say that she was wrong to accept John McCain's offer. She will tell Alaskans and the rest of America that her 17 year old daughter, Bristol, five months pregnant, needs her mother right now.
...
It is becoming increasingly clear that Sarah Palin is a victim of the failure of the McCain campaign to properly vet her as a candidate.
...
They would have realized that the troopergate story is real and will prove damaging. When the drip-drip-dripping finally stops, Madame Governor will have to own up to the emails and admit that, not only did she improperly interfere in the investigation of an ex-brother-in law, but she failed to come clean about it more than once.
Any investigators worth their salt would have concluded that Palin actually supported Alaska's bridge to nowhere, before she opposed it. That damages her image as McCain's reformer/soulmate, which is critical to her appeal.
And they would have heard that sound file of the incident with the talk radio hosts, in which Palin laughs when a political opponent of hers, a recovering cancer patient, was called a bitch and a cancer. That tarnishes the gloss even further.
...
Add it up, because that's what they're doing at the McCain headquarters right now: Palin's lack of qualifications + McCain's age and history of skin cancer + troopergate + the bridge + the radio incident + the unmarried, pregnant teenage daughter.
And you know there's more coming, because the real vetting has just begun.

What's the likelihood that Romney's sitting at home giggling to his little Mormon self (and his 92 little Mormon kids)?

I kinda think Romney, at this point, would rather not be VP. He can wait a couple of years until Kennedy doesn't-run again, and go for the Senate seat from Massachusetts.
