I still hope they're bluffing.  Honestly, Clinton would be a better pick than the 'final three' contenders.

I still say Bayh or Biden - with a slight edge to Bayh.

Bayh is marginally pro-life... don't see how his selection wouldn't completely alienate the base.

Sometimes I think progressives would rather lose an election than nominate anyone who isn't a far-leftist.

Given the circumstances in which Obama beat Clinton, I just don't think it would be wise to pick a pro-life-ish VP.

I'm sure Obama knows that too.  Biden, Kaine, and Bayh are all bad picks.  The campaign is trying to throw off the media.

Obama name-drops Biden today in a speech
http://www.whsv.com/news/headlines/27261129.html

"This is why I've joined with people like Joe Biden to increase a billion dollars of investment every year, putting more money into economic development in Pakistan," Obama said.

He's just f'ucking with us, I bet.  Probably enjoying it too.
