7. Bayh
Says he hasn't been asked. I would think if he was the choice he would already know it.

Where has Biden been? Haven't seen him around lately.

Who ever Obama picks is fine by me because I'm voting Obama no matter what. If I had my choice it would be Brian Schweitzer.

3. Well, it'll come as a surprise to Bayh:
Sen. Evan Bayh, D-Ind., told The Indianapolis Star today that Sen. Barack Obama has not asked him to be his running mate and that he's not expecting Obama to announce his vice presidential pick when Obama is in Indiana Wednesday.

Asked if he will be Obama's vice presidential choice, Bayh said; "I have no idea. You'd have to ask him."

Bayh will be introducing Obama at Wednesday's town hall meeting in Elkhart, but said he knows of no plans for a private meeting with Obama...



Bayh said that while he has "no idea" what Obama's timeline is for announcing his running mate, "I'm absolutely confident there will be no announcement tomorrow. I guess the best way to put it is, if there's an announcement tomorrow, I'd be as surprised as anybody else."

4. PLEASE everyone quit the damn guessing games
BARACK is the one to decide on the VP and all this speculation is really getting sickening

8. When has VP speculation never been a part of
political discourse?

9. You are correct. But I like the general NO tenure of the responses
this particular one got under my skin... it had an air of authority

5. Should be no Senators on his ticket, let alone a Pro-War Bush enabler with a 50% NARAL rating. n/t
