My cell phone went off just a few seconds ago with the much anticipated news of the announcement of Obama's running mate for the 2008 Presidential election. His pick of Joe Biden had been widely touted as the choice by pundits leading up to the announcement, but nobody had the real scoop.
The Obama campaign has judiciously guarded the choice and promised supporters who signed up for a text message over their cell phones and PDAs would be the first to know. I suspect right now hundreds of bloggers are frantically typing similar words to mine.
Many people had wanted to see an Obama-Clinton ticket, but I fail to see how that could have worked. Their battle was so downright nasty in the final days of the primary I cannot imagine either of them being happy with that arrangement. Now it remains to be seen what will happen at the convention after Hillary's name is put into nomination. Hopefully the PUMAs will not cause a party split that would assure McCain of a win in November. We'll see!
