I vowed I wouldn't do a VP post...ah, well, so much for that.

On a long, very dark, ride home tonight I had this thought: what if Obama were to pick someone whose name has never been mentioned as a VP possibility. And what if, when Obama announces his choice we all say "Wow, I never thought of him/her...what a perfect choice!" Wouldn't that be fun? Obama's a cagey guy,,,he might just do something like that.

If something like this has already been posted, I'm sorry. I've been avoiding these annoying VP posts like the plague! :-)

1. It WOULD be fun, I agree! nt

2. I've seen this idea posited here a few times

but you shouldn't worry about repetition.

This is much more interesting speculation than the endless rehash of generally uninspiring names that keep cropping up. A bravura but logically flawless pick for VP would dominate the news cycle right into the GOP convention.

3. I've thought of that, too.

But I couldn't think of who it would be. I guess that would be the point. :eyes:

And smart of you. I said I wouldn't speculate, but that lasted all of 1 day.

4. That would be "Change we can believe in."

5. You're smart..

to avoid them. I just came back after two weeks on the road and no internet and I got sucked in..and I'm not a speculation type.

I just can't wait until we find out and we can get back to the positive stuff.:)
