The Official FINAL Predict-a-VP Thread (Obama Edition)

Biden, which will make me ecstatic

What if it's Mabus?

I (like everyone else I assume?) would be completely shocked, but I'd be pretty happy.

Hey, I'm not eligible yet.

Biden, he said no.  With Bayh, they can say bayh-bye to a senate seat, which seem very valuable these days.  Both of them have already been scheduled for a Wednesday slot, possibly as the VP but not indicated as such.  But so has Bill Richardson, which is my favorite and prediction.

Hey, I'm not eligible yet.

Is your name Ray Mabus?

What, you weren't referring to Mabus, Nostradamus's third incarnation of the anti-Christ?  'Cuz that's me.

Obama and Clinton have given the press the slip before -- when they snuck away to meet at Diane Feinstein's house. 

That is interesting phrasing.

Anyway, Clinton already has a Tuesday speaking slot, and the VP speaks on Wednesday.  I doubt that they would have her speak twice.

I think I figured out a way to determine Obama's running mate.

First, whoever he picks would be carefully chosen that ensures that Obama gains the White House.  So, in equation form:

Obama + Obama's Running Mate = White House

To solve for Obama's Running Mate, we subtract Obama from both sides:

Obama's Runnning Mate = White House - Obama

We all know that if the White House doesn't have Obama, then the White House will be McCain's.  So:

White House - Obama = McCain

And if we substitute:

Obama's Running Mate = McCain

Therefore, McCain will be Obama's running mate.
