[DougieZero]

Indiana media is reporting a surprise stop in Indiana Wednesday. Media has been notified to get special passes.

1. Oh dear God, I hope not. I will be so disgusted. Bayh is HORRIBLE!!!

Milquetoast and DLC. Bad Bad Choice!

[IndyOp]

2. .

Bayh... Evan Bayh... Coward. Obama/Coward. Shit.

:grr:

:cry:

:puke:

[tekisui]

3. And a loss of a Senate seat.

Please no Bayh.

[Liberal_Stalwart71]

4. There are offices opening up in IN. I think the Obama/Bayh crap is too obvious

They are throwing all of us off. It won't be Bayh.

[Brigid]

5. The Obama campaign just opened an office here in TH.

Guess I'd better get down there and see what's going on.

6. RE: possible VP pick

...it isn't going to be Bayh.

The Obama campaign is in no way transparent.

[book_worm]

7. obviously Obama doesn't read DU

because most of what he has done or people who have been leaked as being possible VP's aren't exactly going over well. But my guess is that Obama thinks (if he does pick Bayh) that it will take more than the progressive left to win the election.

[Brigid]

8. I think your guess is correct.

And I think Obama is right in thinking that.

9. Just because Obama announces in IN doesn't necessarily mean it will be someone FROM IN

where did Kerry select Edwards at? Was it NC? I am not sure.

[TheDonkey]

10. Kerry announced Edwards as the VP pick in Pittsburgh and they toured OH and PA shortly after

so................

12. He will announce Clark as his Veep in Indiana!

(fingers crossed)

[MasonJar]

11. Please not Bayh...how is that better than Hillary? or Clark or Biden

or Richardson or almost anyone?

13. That's NOT his only VP related travels this week

[TwilightGardener]

14. What are his other planned VP travels?

[themaguffin]

15. Don't know for sure, but one of the Sunday shows mentioned he had a few VP related trips planned

...this week.

[trewsx11]

16. Great choice! Obama/Bayh 2008 !!

After doing extensive research on all the top candidates for veep, I like Bayh and Sebelius, and either one I'd be happy. Although I think Sebelius is a bit risky and interjects more un-needed race and gender politics in a race already tarred by identity politics.

Although I am very skeptical of this "announcement" on Wednesday. I think Obama will announce after his vacation in Hawaii on Monday August 18, and it could be anyone.
