had it as 60% chance Sebelius, 0% chance Clinton.

Well, since I figure the Clinton only crowd is going to go ballastic, it's not going to make a whole lot of difference that they will all play they "How dare he pick her, it's an insult to Hillary" card in their 75 diaries going up after Obama picks...

Personally, I disagree. With Georgia flaming up, and McCain seeming to win the Iraq poll numbers, I think Wes, Hillary or Biden are better picks.

I like Sebelius early, not so much now.

I personally open my gifts on Christmas day and try not to speculate too much before that

Interesting. But tomorrow Obama has a scheduled meeting with Tim Kaine in Virginia, so this could be the time that Obama makes the announcement.

Too bad ESP does not exist.

Hell to the yes. Fact is, whatever's happening in Iraq and Georgia, people are gonna end up focused more on their own economic woes.

Mojo'd and Rec'd. I wonder - should get to an emergency room if I have a rec-tion that lasts more than 4 hours? This is really hard.

Can we please just let it be ;)

The bumper stickers need to read "Obama/Kathleen."

She did not marry into the most attractive last name in the world.

At.  All.

I bet if you did that domain search, the probably already bought Obama/Baye, ObamaBiden, and any other combo out there. That is what campaigns do before they even start. They think of all the possible scenarios and buy them before someone else tries to take them for nafarious purposes.

Well I will say this.  I will vote for Obama (as of right now).  I DO however- don't think one ounce badly of Hillary supporters who vote for McCain.  We are all free in this country to vote for whomever we choose- for WHATEVER reasons we choose.  Couldn't it be possible that some Hillary voters feel as though McCain is a better pick than Obama?  I mean, maybe their only issue is experience.  Maybe they are mad at the DNC for all it's shenanigans.  Maybe they just don't like Obama for many, many, many other reasons.  Come on people- these are NOT crazy people- they are voters.  Obama must win them, or it is his fault.  So you can bash ex-Clinton McCain voters- but it will get you no where (and, it's kinda group-think, cultish weirdness in my opinion).  

suggests to me that it's actually Sebelius.  You would probably announce Bayh or Kaine in Indiana or Virginia, respectively.  You would probably announce HRC in either Arkansas or New York.

The symbolism of Springfield is anti-Washington; if anything, Biden is completely Washington.  Picking Saturday sort of implies Obama knows he'll get some heat for the pick and does not want overbearing coverage of the event.

That we'll have a black guy nad a woman on the ticket makes me proud, if it happens; I just believe that the decision is wrong if Sebelius is the choice as the media narrative and perception will probably be incredibly harsh towards Sebelius regardless of the reality.  I'm guessing Davis, Schmidt, and McCain would love it if Obama picked Sebelius.

I really hate adding fuel to the fire. But y'know, even though ObamaHillary.com is owned by someone, ObamaClinton.com is also owned by proxy.

Obama to announce VP choice by text Friday afternoon.

She's my first choice, but unfortunately I don't think she's going to be chosen. I've barely heard her mentioned lately.

I hope you're right!

Biden's claiming that it isn't him (unless he doesn't know yet).

My take is either they don't know (all the major names being bandied about) or it's a major head fake, and someone like...oh, maybe Wes Clark will come out of the woodwork to be the guy...

Yeah, I just grabbed that name, nope, no reason or personal preferences at all....

ObamaSebelius.com was registered in January of 2007.  ObamaKaine.com was registered in February of 2007.  ObamaRichardson.com was registered in July of 2004.

I suspect if you dig around you'll find Obama<xxx>.com registrations for just about any plausible combination of xxx you can think of... and the existence of these registrations means only that someone out there thought there was a possibility, no matter how remote, that Obama would run for President and would pick xxx as his running mate.

I hear that Irish bookmakers are giving 350:1 odds on Paris Hilton being Obama's veep pick; wanna bet there's an ObamaHilton.com?  (There is; it was registered August 6, 2008.)
