Sorry for making an "official" thread, I started writing it before this thread exists.  I think I'll leave it just to try and consolidate some comments.

Morden gets the credit.

WTF ABOUT THE TEXT MESSAGES, OBAMA FAIL - I'm upset I signed up for that and waited by my cell phone.

Even Bush got elected with Quayle.

VP's don't make or break elections.

Seriously, did they not promise an infinite amount of times that the people who signed up with them would find out before they confirmed it officially to the press?  I find it rather offensive to be honest.  I'd rather be woken up at 4 am.

The best running mate to combat Biden is Ridge... on many levels.

IMO, if Ridge is the VP Nominee, this election is over.  Obama can never get the electoral vote combination needed to win.  Romney on the ticket would be close to that as well, but Obama's odds would go up.

There is NO way that Obama can win against a McCain/Ridge ticket? Really?  I never realized that vice presidents could guarantee an election in August.

....if Ridge guaranteed both Pennsylvania and Ohio, which he most certainly would not.
