Roll Call: Security sweep at Romney sibling's home
By Politicker StaffSources "with strong Michigan ties" are telling Roll Call that "the Secret Service has conducted a security sweep" of the Michigan home of former Gov. Mitt Romney’s sister, a possible indication that he is presumptive Republican nominee John McCain's vice presidential choice.
"However, one campaign operative familiar with the working of a presidential-level campaign cautioned that a sweep of such a location could have been conducted in advance of Romney appearing as a surrogate — not the vice presidential nominee — at an upcoming McCain campaign stop in Michigan."

Quote of the Day
"I don't see the need to immediately raise the tolls or the gas tax...There are opportunities here that we should look at before we should go say, 'Give us more money.' I don't think the public trusts us to use the money wisely."
