Former housing secretary jack kemp isn't revealing any secrets
about his status as a vice presidential contender:

ASKED. EVEN SO, ITS FLATTERING TO BE CONSIDERED
And all bob dole would reveal was how many names remained on
his short list... but by the end of the day dole did say whoever
he chooses will get a telephone call tonight.
While kemp was getting the most attention yesterday,,dole's
aides cautioned not to place kemp at the top of the list of three
which also includes michigan governor John Engler and Florida
Senator Connie Mack.
It's no secret that kemp and dole have had a rocky relationship..they were
rivals in 88 for the republican
nomination..and this year kemp endorsed steve forbes but yesterday, forbes was
pushing the pairing:
STEVE FORBES/FORMER PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE: THE RUMORS ARE RIGHT, THERE'S
NOW A VERY REAL CHANCE, THAT HE'S GONNA PICK,
OR IS SERIOUSLY CONSIDERING PICKING, JACK KEMP FOR HIS VICE PRESIDENTIAL
RUNNING MATE. IF HE DOES THAT, THAT CHOICE WILL ELECTRIFY THE CONVENTION.
Some say the former nfl pro quarterback could invigorate the
campaign by striking a chord with female and minority voters. and
his anti-abortion stand could also work in his favor.
But among Republican Delegates polled by CBS News Colin Powell
is still the top choice for V.P. followed by governor Engler, --
Jack Kemp and New Jersey Governor Christine Whitman.
