Update 2: Multiple sources now confirming, Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin will be John McCain’s VP pick. (yes, I was so wrong on this!)

Update: The word is I am wrong and it won’t be Romney… But ABC News reports Palin is still in Alaska. However other reports are small plane came from Alaska owned by McCain bundler and woman matching her description was on.

After a day of misdirection, making the media believe it would be Gov. Pawlenty, John McCain will announce his pick today and it is now confirmed he will not be joined by the Gov. A little bit of further misdirection is making some say Gov. Palin from Alaska. While I would LOVE to spend the next few months looking at the very fiesty and nice on the eyes Ms. Palin, it won’t be her in my opinion.

The safe money? It has been and always will be Mitt Romney. A man that can put Michigan in play, a man that can get fiscal and social conservatives together, a man that can do a lot for McCain and rile Dems.

We will see, but that is my pick.
