DAYTON, Ohio (CNN) — John McCain appears to be comfortable with the selection of his running mate, whoever that person may be.
Upon arriving in Dayton, Ohio, Thursday evening, the presumptive Republican presidential candidate was asked on the airport tarmac who he has selected for the No. 2 job.
“Wilford Brimley,” McCain deadpanned.
McCain has been very coy in responding to reporters’ questions about his vice presidential selection process, most recently remaining quiet when asked, or simply raising his thumbs in the air. The candidate’s offbeat joke about Brimley, the 73-year-old actor known for his roles in Cocoon, Our House, and diabetic health commercials, likely reflects the state of ease he is currently experiencing as the months-long search for a running mate is over.
That is, if he was joking.
A wise decision. I mean, the guy has had contact with aliens, FFS. That's some serious foreign policy experience. Suckit Biden! "Diabeetus!"

Let's not forget his strong domestic policy of eating Quaker Oats!

*Great pic too!!!! Hehe, McCain kinda looks a little nervous and kinda afraid of Brimley (not that I blame him).
I know, Brimley kinda has that "touch me, and I'll cut j00" look on his face all the time. It's that William Howard Taft walrus 'stache... It just oozes 19th century whoopass!
He also beat up Tom Cruise in "The Firm". I agree with his Scientology beating policies.
