1. Good
and now I'll remember that if it doesn't happen!

Someone on CNN said "her gut" said they'll announce tomorrow when more people weren't at work. She didn't have to say that and get me all riled up.

3. I was "scientific" in coming to my opinion.
But she does have a point about work. If he does do it during normal working hours, he could be subject to criticism. So maybe I'll "scientifically" revise my prediction to read 8:00 Eastern.

If I saw Obama now, I'm afraid of what I might say to him.

Shit.

I. Can't. Stand. It.

I've got Randi streaming so I can HEAR it when it comes, too.

5. I can picture the Obama war room
with lots of TV's on. I'll bet they don't have a written in stone time, as they don't want it to get lost in another news story or the Olympics.

Oh how convenient that you change your prediction NOW!!! 8:00 does sound pretty reasonable though.

6. remember when I joked about him announcing it
on stage at the convention? or at a rally 30 seconds before the VP walks out?

I was joking, Obama, joking, not making a suggestion! :(

9. Revised it after I thought about the "at work" thing. 8pm Central.
Actually, just walking out on stage with the pick would be awesome.

Send text message - give the crowd a few minutes to digest and start screaming, then appear on stage together. That would be dramatic.

13. Yeah - the longer Obama waits, the more chance of it leaking.
I'm changing my mind again - the sooner he announces, the less probability of a leak.
