I thought the same thing a few days ago when it said he may do it before the speech...it would have to be someone that would make the RATS really shake in their boots. But who?

I really hope he doesnt announce his VP today- leaks are fine..but no real announcement. Sometimes it pays to show class- regardless of what the other side is doing.well said. im sure a lot of people agree with you

I agree, it would be a bad move, but I think McCain is just messing with the media a little bit. I don’t think he has any intention of releasing the name of the VP tonight.

Maybe McCain camp has leaked the possibility so that reporters start camping out at the homes of the candidates like they did for Obambi’s pick, lets see if that happens. The media is always looking for that scoop. That would create something without McCain actually announcing tonight

The cult can chant to drown out McCains announcement The DNC is scared to death that the crowd may break out with the TOGA!, TOGA!, TOGA! chant.
Man, that would be priceless, because then the producers would have to try to drown that out by potting up the volume on the PA system, or limiting the TV feed to just pick up Obama's mike. I'm certain they have Toga!, Toga!, Toga! contingency plans - which is funny in it's own right.

I think that’ll happen if its either Pawlenty OR Cantor. Upon hearing either name as his VP choice, the average voter is going to say: WHO!? The average voter doesn’t have a clue who either of them are.
That’s not to say I think either is a bad candidate, but neither will generate any immediate excitement among the general public at all.

To steal from the Rock (WWE wrestler): "Can you smell what Obama is cocking?"
I guess it might be 'obamacide'?
