I heard today that he choose a candidate but is being hush hush about it. So he finely made is decison. I wonder whom he chose.

I have no earthly idea. Of the three people mentioned, I don't know any of them. I would have preferred to see Edwards run as VP. Or even Clinton, in order to pull her followers in behind Obama. I really think when a VP is chosen, a concerted effort should be made to use the Vice Presidency as a place to get their name known and demonstrate suitability for subsequent presidential runs. I know it doesn't work that way, but it seems to me like it should.

Doesn't matter who it is I don't believe he can win this election, I think that he has done himself in and I am so glad I believe he would ruin this country.

I think it is likely to be Evan Bayh but I could be wrong. I think Bayh would give O. the most help in the rust belt states where he is weak.He is campaigning in my state today ,Virginia, with the Governor Tim Kaine another strong possibility. Since Mark Warner running for Senate in Va, (also former Gov.) is giving keynote address, I would tend to think it's not Kaine, but he's looking pretty pleased with himself on TV these days.
