Seems predictions of DU disaster due to the VP selection were a bit off. I guess that would go in the plus column for the Biden selection. With all the dramatics and fighting, a little calm is a welcome change

3. You know Obama generates enough excitement by himself

So maybe a very well qualified non-controversial candidate is the best choice

4. Don't stow your gear yet.
It won't take much to get the heathens back to melt down mode. One Saturday night stealth freeper post ought to do it.

8. I suspect that might have helped the situation
I wonder if it would have been quite as calm if it was done as around 8 pm Friday night
