Obama V.P. Speculation

Normally, I wouldn’t care. But seeing it’s the big thing right now. I’ll jump on the bandwagon here.

MSNBC Says it’s Biden:

Within the last few hours I’ve spoken with two
of the finalists for the role of Barack Obama’s running-mate, and to
two other sources who are close to the process.

My bottom line
is this: Barring a big surprise or last-minute change of heart, the
choice is likely to be Sen. Joe Biden of Delaware, chairman of the
Foreign Relations Committee.

He is a
lively and feisty if unpredictable campaigner with working-class roots
and a street-level feel for the hot spots of the globe — which he can
use to go toe-to-toe with Sen. John McCain.

“If I had to bet my life on it, I’d bet it is Joe,” said one of the other contenders.

Said another, “Barack is moving toward a seasoned Beltway type, and that probably means Biden.”

And a source personally close to Obama simply said “Biden makes the most sense.”

Biden would make sense, he’s got the foreign policy and he would make one hell of a good attack dog.

This Blogger says that it’s Kathleen Sebelius:

We have a credible lead that Barack Obama will be announcing Kathleen Sebelius for Vice President / VP.

Our sources work within an ad agency that is hired by the Obama
campaign, and have noted that the vast majority of the discussions
there are regarding material logistics in terms of Kathleen on the vice
president ticket. Now until this is verified please file it as rumor,
however our sources on this are not bad.. and have yet to be proven
wrong.

Our source noted “It will get a women on the ticket that shares the
same views as Obama” a reference to many of the Hillary supporters..

Then of course we had to do some research.

We held some general opinions prior to this little research project.
One of them being that they wouldn’t have multiple domain providers, it
becomes a hassle.. so the chances are they used the same registrar.

He goes to show that the Obama campaign bought the domain OBAMASEBELIUS.COM. Kathleen Sebelius would make sense as well, as she would possibly bring Hillary voters to the ticket. Except for the idiotic PUMA group. Which has all of about 250 people.

Other people being discussed are Bill Richardson, who would bring some serious foreign policy credentials to the Obama campaign. (Despite what some idiotic Republicans say about that…)

Either way, I believe no one is going to have the actual “inside track” on whom Obama will pick, obviously it will be someone that will help and not hurt his campaign.
