Yep! Cantor's Spokesman Calls GOP Speakers Vacuous.

    Inadvertently, I'm sure.  But, The Hill reports that Rep. Eric Cantor is not on the list of speakers for the Republican Convention next week, and speculates on whether that is a hint about McCain's VP choice.

    Cantor's spokesman (Rob Collins) didn't directly answer the question, but attributed Cantor's absence from the list to the “vacuity of convention speakers.” 

    Of course, the list of speakers is actually very full, which takes away just about the only possible positive definition for Mr. Collins ("empty").  The other definitions do not put the Republican (and Lieberman) speakers in a very favorable light.  (http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/vacuity%20)

    (By the way, the absence of "Arizona's Other Senator, Jon Kyl" jumped out at me.)
