26. Kaine was a civil rights lawyer. |
|
Obama doesn't need help in that department. He needs help in the foreign policy department, or fighting off the right-wing attack dog department. If Kaine were a dog, he would be a cockerspaniel! Warm, sweet and cuddly.

9. When you sign up for the VP text do you receive others frequently? |
|
I want to sign up, but I do not have unlimited texting I do not want to receive a ton of campaign texts. Can anyone who signed up tell me? :-)

30. That would be a safe bet. |

Gives Wed., Thursday and Friday to talk it over. It would still be the subject on the talking head weekend, and then the Convention!!!

12. I hope he waits until the "Cone of Silence" debacle for McCain |
|
runs its viral course. He's really (McCain) getting slammed and this is good. I'd say Thursday morning..

22. It would make McCain's campaign go ballistic -- |
|
they've got to be waiting on Obama's pick before they make theirs.
That's the only reason I'd be willing (!) to wait for the Convention.

16. Read Obama is scheduled to be in Virginia on Wednesday. |
|
Edited on Mon Aug-18-08 10:58 AM by flpoljunkie
There are plenty of tea leaves to read. Obama’s schedule this week takes him through the home states of a few possible contenders: He’s spending Monday in New Mexico (Gov. Bill Richardson) and Wednesday in Virginia (Gov. Tim Kaine and former Gov. Mark Warner). http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0808/12596.html

25. Often, the first guy to know is the guy who gets the job |
|
If Richardson is 1st on that travel schedule, he may have the spot ;P
Unless Kaine already knows, and the Wednesday deal is a wrap up. Man, the Fundies already think Obama is the anti-christ. They'll go into conniptions if he picks a running mate names Kaine (Cain), lol

39. Campaign bumper stickers don't appear by magic |
|
Companies have to print them and a lot of people are involved. Someone would have leaked it by now. People leak national security secrets in this country.

I cannot express to people outside VA what a mutant Gilmore is.
(He is Warner's US Senate opponent)
On top of everything else, he was the terror czar when 9/11 happened.
