Obama says he's decided on a running mate, but he won't say who...

The Democratic presidential candidate told USA Today on Thursday that he went with someone who is independent and would challenge him in the White House.

Now I think it is Hillary again. He needs her to get over the top and win against a surging McCain. All the desciptions are exactly her profile.

This AP story left out some information. He also said that he wanted someone without a huge ego.

Regardless, I think it's Hillary too. Biden, Bayh, Sibelius and Kaine don't really excite anyone, and with the media focus off Hillary recently, it would be an instantly huge story, drowning out everything else before the convention.

Whoever it is, I just hope the VP candidate knows how many homes he/she owns before taking questions from reporters.

Anyone who chooses a candidate based on the advertising logo on their campaign plane is an idiot.

If it's the two biggest egos in politics running on the same ticket, bet on the underdog.

real smart - so just because you like Hillary you will be vindictive if he doesn't pick her and vote for McCain. That makes alot of sense fundamentally, because it's obvious an Obama/Hillary ticket would have a platform much more similar to McCain's than Obama/anyone else.
This is the problem with America. No one votes on the issues. Just for who they like/want/feel would be good. Use your head!

That just makes no freakin sense. If you agree with Hillary's policies and political stance, why would you vote McCain? The only logical conclusion that can be made about those Hillary fans who are threatening to vote for McCain is that they care more about the person than the policy.

This is a silly game that shows how irritating Obama can be. If he doesn't pick Hilary he might well lose and will have only himself and his all-too-celver advisors to blame.

The USS Obama Titanic keeps lumbering along. Jeremiah Wright, Bill Ayers, Ludacris, George Soros and the other unrepetent terrorists, America-haters, racists and felons that Obama has partnered with the last 20 years are enjoying drinks and cigars on the deck, laughing and speculating about what will be on the menu for their first dinner in the White House.

But there is an iceberg ahead that is just now beginning to show up on the Zogby radar.

After November, when people talk about colossal failures, they will mention the movies "Ishtar" and "Heaven’s Gate" – and they will mention the Obama campaign.

Americans will never again trust the mainstream media or Democratic Party for perpetrating the Obama fraud on this nation.

There is some overlap between the skills and experience of Biden and Obama that would make them perfect for one another.

In addition to being extraordinarily arrogant, both are plagerists.

"(Biden's) first bid for the presidency, beginning in 1987, famously flamed out after he was caught stealing passages from a speech by Neil Kinnock, the leader of the Labor Party in Britain at the time." - New York Times
