this has been the longest tunnel I have ever walked. I am hoping that is the light.

2. I am hoping for September |

I don't think he should wait until the Nobel Prize is announced.

4. I also hope for September, but I also know if won't happen |
|
I used to think it might, but now I'm of the mind that there is no way he'll announce before the Peace Prize is announced. If he were an announced candidate it would put the selection committee in a very difficult position. I'm hoping for sometime in the second half of October now. After that, I think it's getting to be too late, even for him.

5. I know they announce in Oct but... |
|
don't you think they would pick way before then?? I guess we could look up the rules. I also think he should do so by Sept, Oct is kind of pushing it time wise...
I think its better if he's in before he knows if he won too, then its not like, I am running because I am so perfect, that way he can't be accused of riding on that.

3. The longest and the darkest by far |
|
That better be the light, because if it's not, I think I'm going to wind up right back in the tunnel.

...I just don't know if it's the end of the tunnel, or a train headed our way.

7. Announcing his Candidacy while accepting the prize... |
|
Edited on Sun Aug-19-07 02:22 PM by ALiberalSailor
...assuming he wins would be, in my estimation, "The Mother of all Acceptance Speeches."

but I don't think the award is actually presented until January or something like that -- way too late for an announcement, IMHO.

9. I read that to mean that the ceremony would be at the same time... |
|
...as the announcement. So, they announce the winners, and then make them wait almost 2 months to present the award?

12. Could he wait that long? |
|
Considering S. Carolina is probably going to move up their Primary, which might make others follow suit.

13. Hopefully he won't wait until the ceremony |

I think that's too late. But he could wait until the October 12 announcement.
