By
From an impromptu press availability:
Elisabeth Bumiller (New York Times) -- Can I ask you about your feelings about Tim Pawlenty right now? Talk that he is top on the list.
McCain: "You know Elizabeth that I can’t but when we’re – we can’t mention any names – we have the process going on."
Bumiller: "You can’t say anything positive about him?"
McCain: "Oh Tim. I’m sorry. He’s a great, fine person. Reelected in one of the toughest reelection years in the history of the Republican party. He comes from a –- his father I am pretty sure -- drove a truck. He has pretty successfully been able to work across the aisle in Minnesota with the Democrats. And I think he is, he, Bobby Jindal and a number of governors, I think are the future of the Republican party. The next generation of leadership."
