It is 3 AM , Friday 8-22-08, check your text message, the VP will be.......

[DB1]

My guess is Biden, he went to the Dentist today, his vanity is very apparent.
As for the timing, it will make the Friday early shows, and the 3AM thing is just kind of cool.

1. Is this confirmed?

:shrug:

2. Going to the dentist means he's vain?

[GarbagemanLB]

3. He got a $400 teeth-whitening!

[DB1]

7. If we knew his tailor, I bet he bought a brand new suit as well.

10. And, which tanning parlor was it? ..... This will be a GREAT TICKET!!

If it's a guy, it's vanity. I don't get it. If a woman got her teeth cleaned, got a tan and a nice new outfit - it would be "classy."

Women - chime in here!

24. Good.

With these HD tvs, you can see every flaw in a person, down to the pores in their skin. I don't want our candidates looking anythng less than their best.

4. I need to stop going if it's just for vanity. It's really hit my wallet hard lately.

13. hahahaha nt

5. Didn't Obama say Saturday, today?

9. No. I actually expect the announcement tomorrow morning.

[gateley]

14. We have been buffeted around so many times, that unless I see a clip

of Obama saying he's going to announce it on Saturday (or whatever day), then I'm not going to buy it.

Has the campaign officially said that the VP will be there with him on Saturday? I think that's what will happen, but I read somewhere that the campaign "would not confirm" that the running mate will be making an appearance.

I'm spent.

6. Sending the text message at 3 AM would be a great joke, but....

...it would also cause a lot of people to instinctively throw their phones against the wall when they got a call from a strange number in the middle of the night.

So I doubt that's how they'll do it. And it won't be Biden.

How does Noon, Mountain time sound? ;)

[DB1]

8. If I got a text message from Obama at 3AM I would brag all day....

If you want to sleep, shut your phone off.

[Arnold Judas Rimmer]

16. You're not thinking with a full brain for about the first 30 seconds or so when you wake up

That's why I said "instinctively". A lot of people would be sweeping up the pieces of their shattered phones, sorry that they missed the call, but they still would have chucked it.

11. I saw Sebelius buy a package of rice cakes at the supermarket yesterday...

...therefore, it must be her. Why else would she be watching her weight?

[Sparkly]

12. Low Battery, whoever that is.

:(

[nsd]

15. If I got a call at 3 AM, my first thought would be ...

"Oh, no. Something terrible has happened to a family member. Somebody died or is in the hospital."

I would be so eff-ing mad. They're not going to send it at 3 AM.

[Clovis Sangrail]

20. that's my reaction too /nt

[gateley]

17. He went to the DENTIST? Why do you say that? nt

[damndude]

18. If its 3am it must be hillary

[polichick]

19. Was Andrea Mitchell hiding in the bushes at the dentist's office too???

[democrat2thecore]

21. That's funny. Did you hear this? (inside)

On 'Countdown' tonight they were talking about how all the reporters are stalking the possible veep candidates and watching their body language, etc. Someone said, "It's like the political version of TMZ".....I thought it was funny.

[polichick]

22. LOL - I missed that!

[Top Cat]

23. I agree.... Obama will own the airways if it happens the way you have guessed

[DB1]

25. So true. By the way I think it 3 AM central time, Illinois. 4am est, 5pst, makes all ....

the morning news, Did you get your 3 am call today? Senator Obama's friends did, and what a ruckus it is making.
