WTF? Obama to showcase his Veep in Indiana

uh oh, looks like Bayh will be Obama's Veep.

AUG 20 -- Obama Doing "Major Event" In Indiana Saturday: The Nashville Post reports that Obama is doing a major event in Evan Bayh's home state the day he is expected to first appear with his running mate.

NashvillePost.com has learned that senior campaign officials from the Barack Obama Presidential campaign are being dispatched from various locations around the country and are converging in Indianapolis for a "major event" to take place on Saturday.

Saturday is the same day that Obama is expected to make his first public appearance with his yet to be announced vice presidential running mate. Indiana is the home state of Democratic Senator Evan Bayh, widely considered to be on the short list of Democratic vice presidential contenders.

1. No, that's been debunked. Obama camp has denied it--just a rumor.

2. This got debunked at some point yesterday. The Obama

campaign said it's not true. Who knows what the heck is going on. Just keep your phone pasted to your body.

7. Frankly, if it is Bayh, Kane or Sibelius, I'll be -- Underwhelmed

And to say I'd be underwhelmed would be putting it enthusiastically.
