the few names names supposed to be favorite.

It would show he is able to think out of the box that is the DC echo chamber and to take a stand that the media and DC strategists were not able to think on their own.

I will be fine with any name that he will announce, but a different name could be a great sign that things can change in DC.

1. I think it would be hilarious if he does that; the egg on the media's
collective face would be priceless! I'm open to whomever he chooses; it's not going to matter all that much in a week.

6. Obama is not stupid that is for sure
he knows the media, and I hope he continues playing with them to make them look like fools.

8. richardson or schweitzer (if not clark) would be nice out-of-the-box choices
but not too out of the mainstream.

9. I seriously think that he is going to pick...
...an "out-of-the-box" vp candidate, as you said.

That's just Obama's style.

While we're looking to the left, he's going to surprise us with something from the right.

(but not literally from the right. that would be bad). ;)
