4. WHen it's announced you'll probably forgert about this
As what happens to most things you wait for.

This time tomorrow we will all know and this will be over with.

I'm glad this has taken over from that boring Hillary vs Obama war.

7. I am getting annoyed that folks can't wait--the time line is pretty much the same as other candidate
with the exception of Kerry in '04 who choose Edwards three weeks early and then proceeded to have a relatively quaint and boring convention which got a very little boost in the polls. Obama is timing this perfectly.

26. What are you telling me to get over?
People are freaking the fuck out about when he's going to announce. I am starting to believe that this is just an excuse for many to become critical. Same familiar faces day after day with this shit.

Dude, as I've said many times... I don't care who he chooses because I trust our nominee to pick the best VP for him and to announce it at a time that is strategic.

just cause some people are ridiculously impatient, doesn't mean I have anything to get over.

35. You said you were annoyed. Did you mean you were annoyed at someone else?
Perhaps David Axelrod? Do you think he's behind the delay?

29. Nooooo!!!!! My sister can't get a certain salad we have here either.
maybe it's based on regional sales. She lives in Mass. and the Trader joe's there doesn't carry the thai checken noodle salad we have here.

28. I'm not annoyed at all. I love how Obama is tweaking the MSM with this.
They're not talking about "why can't Obama close the deal with white people" this week.

They've been talking about Obama's VP choice all week, and now McCain's housing problem (hee hee!) is cutting into the MSM screed a little.

I love it! :-)

33. My bro told me they might delay it ....
Don't know where he heard it, but the Obama camp might delay the announcement to get the most mileage out of the "I don't know how many houses I own" gaffe. Not a bad idea, if true.

I wouldn't mind waiting a few more days if Geritol Man is getting skewered. :evilgrin:
