Rob Portman was stumping for John McCain in Indy yesterday:

Portman has been rumored to be on John McCain's list of potential running mates, but says he hasn't been asked for the financial information required as part of a candidate's background check, and doesn't expect to be.

"I'm happy to help him, here in Indiana and around the country, but he's got a lot of great choices," Portman says.

It's interesting how the stock of VP candidates rises and falls each week. A couple of weeks ago, Portman's name was considered to be high on McCain's short list. Today, we rarely hear about him. I wouldn't count him out just yet though.
