Bayh may help Obama close the deal in Indiana and Ohio, but he's almost as boring as Lieberman.

Biden is the ultimate foreign policy expert in the Senate, but I'm not sure if he'll bring any states with him. Delaware will vote for Obama with or without Biden.

I still want Bill Richardson.

Do you think Julie picked Bill???

It wouldn't surprise me if, in a race among the "front runners", Bayh, Kaine, and Biden, that "None of the above" wins.

I bet Julie picked Chelsea.

Far be it for me to give Obama any advice, but as a McCain supporter, two people I don't want chose as VP are:

Tim Kaine. Virginia and Ohio are the ultimate swing states this year. Kaine will turn Virginia from Toss Up to Leans Obama, and if McCain hopes to win the Presidency, he needs Virginia.

Hilary Clinton. I've said from the beginning that I'm glad that Hilary's name is not in the mix because, in my opinion, this selection would seal it up for Obama. Maybe I'm wrong, but I believe that the dynamic would be too much for McCain to overcome. I don't think he'll do it because he doesn't want a tri-Presidency, but it's a surefire winner in my view.

And now we'll have to wait until Saturday to find out who Obama's running mate is.

Quit teasing me, Barack!

Not if he keeps his promise to tell the folkses who signed up for a text message or E-mail first. Cuz I'm telling!

Prolly won't beat the reporters to it, though.

Unless this is a red herring that the media are chasing, it's starting to look more and more like it's gonna be Biden.

The e-mail and text message will be sent bright and early tomorrow morning.

The suspense is killing me. My heart can't take it.

The latest off-shore betting lines, courtesy of InTrade.com, for entertainment purposes only of course.

Democratic VP Nominee:

Biden 7-2
Bayh 5-1
Kaine 7-1
Sebelius 10-1
Clinton 11-1
Clark 13-1

FIELD 11-1

Odds Obama will pick a woman 5-1

Republican VP Nominee:

Pawlenty 3-1
Romney 7-2
Ridge 8-1
Portman 10-1

FIELD 6-1

If I'm betting (which, in case anybody listening, I'm NOT), my quatloos say Obama goes off this list, doesn't pick a woman, and McCain picks Pawlenty. The Lieberman possiibility makes a Field bet intrigiung on the Republican side, but I just don't see it.
