Teacher – great point. It is horrible. I try to address these comments when I see them but you are right.. . . . it is a terrible thing the bigotry toward muslims.

Well his campaign didn't say anything but when you have hundreds of reporters camped out all over the place and making guesses it's bound to get out. The MSM was determined to scoop the story.

Well, unlike Cindy McCain, at least Obama acknowledges his existence.

Y'all are right. Apparently, according to East Coast, Kossacks they sent out text messages @ 3 AM EDT! Eh hee!

I'm on the West Coast, so I haven't gotten mine yet. Probably won't until 3 AM PDT.

3 AM. That's cold. That's cold-blooded cool.

Richardson was on earlier, and they asked him when the announcement would come…he wouldn't commit but he made a point of saying “after midnight”….not tomorrow, or Saturday…but “after midnight” and sure enough, John King broke the story about quarter to.

I was hoping for someone explosive, like Gore….and much less likely, Powell.

Can you imagine the shock waves???

Anyway, I think Biden will fight for Obama. I don't sense any guile or treachery in him….despite his gaffes.

You're so right. Can you imagine him taking on her debt? How can you be considered for VP with such a huge campaign debt? Furthermore, I don't believe Hillary wanted it. There's no way she'd submit to vetting by O's team…too damn proud/arrogant.

It was NEVER going to happen.

That's a very good point. It brings to mind the careful separation of their finances. I think Cindy's father was alive when they married. It could be, they encouraged the marriage, and “groomed” McCain.

I don't think it is Biden because I believe what Obama said – that it would be texted first before the media knows.

His campaign has been really good at keeping his cards close to his vest. I just don't think the media's on the right track with this.

Beautiful couple. Congratulations and as the Italians say “Cent'anni” roughly, a hundred more years.

**Dances in with holstered Blackberry Pearl on standby**

**Shakes Coach keyring of 7-10 keys at neo-cons in honor of McCaca's many unknown houses**

McCaca is having his macaca moment.

Still don't believe it'll be Biden; I'm going with the Obama three point play at half-court - Brian Schweitzer.

NMP,

AS IF that would help. Because, you and I both know, that the MEDIA should have gotten the answers to these questions.
