Republicans need to stop pretending to be Hillary supporters.

Obama made a smart choice in not picking Ms. "Intitled"!!!

Does anyone else wish it were Biden/Obama?

Uhhh…Lisa. You can't write in a Vice Presidential candidate. They call it a 'ticket' because you have to vote for both or neither.
I hope you do more homework before you actually vote for who will be my next president.

A Senator with more negative comments about Obama than McCain = Biden. Not to mention that Biden got " the most important" decision wrong.

Most importantly if this happens – the Democratic ticket looks backwards. The experience needs to be at the top of the ticket.

Whatta ya know, Joe?
Apparently, quite a lot.
Take care not to show up your running mate
While coverin' the number two spot.

Oh please! Biden is as old as McCain! This is change????
I don't think so…. politics as usual. You Obamafans just don't get it do you? He's a career politician!!!! Biden AND Obama! How's that 'change' gonna work out for you? It's not. Obama is lame. He's a joke.

Biden is one of the few people that would make me strongly consider voting Obama. Joe has a great record of public service and was my choice to be our next president.

Obama/Biden the winning team.

Haha if it is Biden the Repubs are drooling and doing the happy dance…They have so much to attack Biden on its gonna be a feast…I cant wait till Mccain mops the floor with Nobama! GO MCCAIN

Two pompous pricks, both full of themselves – great combination.

How about Hillary for Secretary of Health?
That would give her the opportunity to finally implement the much needed Health care reform that she and Bill always promised, but were never able to deliver on. With Obama in the White Hose and a Democrat Senate and Congress, it could happen now and she could take the credit.
Would you diehard Hillary supporters really prefer more Republican incompetence and corruption over the next for years, rather than an Obama administraton that included the Clintons?

HOW THE HELL IS OBAMA GOING TO REPRESENT "CHANGE" WITH THAT WASHINGTON INSIDER BIDEN ON THE TICKET???.

SAY HELLO TO MCCAIN 'O8 AND HILLARY '12

If Biden is the pick, well, I know people who will be happy, but I don't see it as helping win, and that's the only criterion I have for a VP pick.

Stop yelping all you jackals!!!
It is all about Barack Obama and his dreams for America. Go for it whoever he picks as his vice president. He will choose the man.
Obama 08!!

What's with all these bashers of Senator Obama? You are filled with so much hatred and arrogance, its just amazing. It really is putting me off your party.

Biden is the choice as Clinton is out…

end of the suspense

Evan,

I just spent the last 8 years on the moon and the earth looks just stunning from there. You get this wonderfull clarity. You should try it some time.
I had to mail my 2004 ballot with my vote for Bush the day after both Bush and Kerry were officially nominated, mail takes a long time from the moon.
I'm back on Earth now though, now internet connection on the moon.

wish they would really rock the vote and pick Al Gore, too bad

He can kiss my vote "hello" if Hillary is not chosen!!

I am so excited! I don't think I am going able to sleep tonight. This is going to be the best week ever!!!!!!
Obama 08/12

OH NO!

I had a lot of money and credibility riding on it being Bayh or Kaine!

They would be much better choices than the prolix and "articulate" Biden!

Go ahead and write in Hillary's name and waste your vote. It'll be counted as other and won;t matter anyway. Go ahead and vote McCain, you know you want to anyway. I don't think even HRC on the ticket would have changed your minds.

I'd love to see you 'ballot writers' figure out how to write-in on a voting machine.

No threats for VP from you closet repubs.

now it is time to go to bed. i am glad it is Biden. see you all in the morning. this team will be formidable one. Obama will continue his positive , civil message. Biden will chew McCain like a paper shredder.

3am and the next VP is…………………………………………..please Biden

Obama can kiss my vote goodbye if he doesn't pick Hillary Clinton. I will be writing her name on the ballot in November.

If the choice is Biden, it is an outstanding choice ! There is no one better suited to step in and boost Obama's campaign than Joe Biden………………..He will really take it to the republicans big time !

NO VOTE FROM ME FOR OBAMA/WHOEVER

Hopefully this means something. I hope it will be Biden, he would bring experience to the ticket and would crush McCain into the ground. Bill Richardson would be a good choice. But I just hope he won't choose Sebelius, that would be a automatic loss of all Clinton votes, cause they would be like, if a women, why not hillary? And where did this Chet Edwards guy come from? He wasn't on the short list until today. But since Obama made his choice I will respect who it is.

Barack Obama
Joe Biden
2008

Mr Biden ran a spirited campaign and knew when it was time to get out. He got out and did not employ the slash and burn technique like someone else we know of.

I hope his choice is Biden…Hillary folks need to remember this is Obama's choice in spite of what anyone may think through out the primaries and the general, Obama has run an outstanding campaign compared to Hillary or McCain. This let's us know how he would manage being the President. Everyone needs to stay focus on the big picture and stop the bickering. This should be about uniting and regaining the WH.

this is sooo… exciting no excitment for Mcrichy rich. OBAMA"08″

I am so excited. I heard from a friend of a friend that knows one of the campaign voluteers that get's Obama his morning tea that Obama intends on announcing HIMSELF AS VP . . . IT'S AN OBAMA/OBAMA TICKET . . . he does walk on water . . . doesn't he.

Vote McCain in 2008

I love this pick if it's true. It's time for a pit bull and that's definitely up Biden's alley. And I especially love how angry this will make the Hillary crowd. Keep up your crowing about not voting, or even better voting against your own best interests out of spite. Every time you people moan about it, it proves that the right person truly did get the nod. We've spent 8 years listening to morons like you, just from the other end of the spectrum. We don't need 4 more. The soap opera is over you spoiled brats. Time to turn the channel on you.

Biden is an old school politician who's run for President twice and didn't get enough votes in either set of primaries to get elected dog catcher. What does he add to the new politics the Obama promotes? Oh, thats right, promoting is only a marketing thing that has no basis in fact. He'll fit right in.

blah… oh well i guess it's better that he loses, that way Hillary can have another shot in 2012, seriously, democrats are so stupid for choosing Obama,,,, they should be winning by more than 10 percentage points by now

If it is Biden with Obama and Romney is with McCain, Biden will tear Romney's plastic head off in the debate.

Obama/Biden 08

One House – One Spouse

Can't wait for the change !

cnn talking points is biden said obama has little experiance hillary hooray her in mccain during the primarys. obama 08

Biden has more experience than Clinton, so what's wrong with that? A VP must be ready to serve as President, if needed. Biden is well-qualified. How can you argue that Clinton would be a better VP? It's less about earning votes, more about qualification.

who cares who Obama's running mate will be. Nothing could make
Obama a good president.

Not picking Hillary will be an insight into what may be his total ineptitude. It will also secure McCains vote from me!

Gotta hand to The Bama–he's proving to be a media maestro that way he's orchestrating this…a promising trait to be sure and once again showing more finess than Mac Kane.

A 3:00 a.m. text message might be viewed in poor taste if the choice ISN'T Clinton, since she made a point of being available at that time in case of an emergency. The Obama camp would be making a point, yet risks alienating Clinton supporters.

How can someone that believes in Democrat policies and principles, want to vote for McCain, if Hillary is not chosen ?? What does that tell you about yourself? Really, it doesn't make sense, does it ? If Hillary is the person you think she is , she will agree with me !! Is she voting for McCain ? Get real will ya?

I have received a text mesagge from Obama. Here is the text:

-My VP is Biden….

Then I received another text message saying:

- I will lost the november 2008 election!

Mitt out spent McCain 2 to 1 in the primary too but lost. Obama is doing the same thing and losing.

People just have to see McCain a couple of time to recognize he is the real deal and no amount of negative ads will change peoples minds. Obama can spend all the money he wants, but McCain is mainstream America.

Isn't Biden too OLD??? Yap he is!

obama/biden-08 2012

Obama/Biden 2008

Doing a happy dance in anticipation!!!

If the VP nominee is Joe Biden, old man McCain may need smelling salts. The VP nominee will be the attack dog and McCain will be shredded to pieces. McCain won't know what hit him, which means McCain will keep taking the weekends off to recuperate.

I can't believe he made us wait all week for Joe Biden. Yawn. What a gimmick, and the media have nothing better to do than fall all over him. Even less can I believe his treatment of Hillary. It's really all disgusting. I like Obama alot, but what respect I had for him as a candidate is gone. This is one in 18 million whose come to the difficult conclusion that McCain is the choice in '08. Obama's window of opportunity to gain our trust has slammed shut. He thinks he can win without Hillary; he has no one to blame but himself if he can't pull it off. What arrogance.

I want to know why no one seems to think that it is news worthy to report on Cindy McCain’s lie about being an only child. There have been reports on Obama and his half brother in Kenya, however no stories on Cindy and John McCain’s black balling her sister who lives here in the U.S. She has been interviewed on talk Radio confirming that she was not invited to her father’s funeral and would NOT vote for her own brother-in-law. Despite all you have reported about her helping charities, she gave her sister $10,000 from a multi-million dollar inheritance from their father! Is the media discriminating? Seems like it to me!

Biden is the best pick. He is outspoken, tough, tested and would be a great voice inside and outside the White House. He brings in some Clinton voters, independents, Catholic voters and all in all I think Biden knows that if he ever wants to be President this is probably a smart move. I just cannot wait to see him on the stump because John McCain will get his head handed to him by the hour. Lindsey Gramm and Fox-hole Joe Turncoat will get their lumps too. Biden was my first choice in the early primaries so having him as the Veep is just going to be great.

Thrilled it will not be Hillary!! She lost more voters with her nasty campaigning….now she has these rabid females screwing anything they can!

RJ, it's a well known fact that AOL is the IP choice of the right wing, so I take any "poll" they do there with not just a grain of salt, but with an entire dump truck load of it.

Flurry? Really CNN? Maybe he wanted his children over because his son is leaving for Iraq or maybe they were having dinner and needed and escort because of the media/papparzzi surrounding his home.

For the record, since NO ONE seems to report this correctly, Sen. Biden is from Greenville, DE which is much different than bang bang shoot em dead Wilmington.

Delaware couldn't be prouder!

So Obama chose the safe candidate. BORING.

I wish he had the guts to chose Hillary as VP. That would have been real change.

tHIS IS BIGGER THAN OBAMA AND HILLARY, THATS WHY I DONT CARE WHAT HILLARY SAYS OBAMA WAS SUCH A SCUMBAG TO HER AND THE MEDIA SUCKIN HIM OFF LIKE THAT WAS SO UNFAIR. IF HE DOESNT PICK HER HE LOST , I COULD GIVE 2 PITS FOR PARTY UNITY, YOU WANT UNITY THEN UNITE THEM BOTH

Clinton, Biden, Bayh. It doesnt matter. Obama will win in 2008, and thats all that matters!

i would love to have joe biden as his vp, so he can eat up mcshame and all the airhead republicans. The little children that supported hillary your need to suck it up, get over it and grow up. we need to stop this country from going further into recession and wars. let get behind the dem so the rich don't get richer and the poor don't
get poorer. remember mcshame doesn't remember how many houses he have because he owns too many. i'm trying to understand why hillary supporter are still angry when obama have the same policy as hillary. i'm sure hillary will have a position in obama's cabinet.

Biden = Bore, Big Mouth, and Bad News for Obama. The GOP will eat both of these 2 alive in attack adds.

Oh, please let it be Biden.

QUESTION: What does a young sensational Muhammad Ali (The Greatest) and Senator Joe Biden has in common.

The gift for setting up their opponents and knocking them out with two words. Obama, please pick Biden! We can surely use that mouth-almighty knockout punch.

With Obama's electricity and Biden's words, the campaign is in the bag!

Joe Biden the best choice.

Biden would be the perfect pick!

This form Republican will vote for Obama unless he makes a mistake and takes the divisive Clinton.

Wait a minute. Just the other day with golf clubs in car he said he was not "the guy". He must have been referring to his game.

If it's anybody but Hillary, it shows more bad judgement from Obama. I don't care if it's the old guy, "Hair Plugs" Biden, or anybody else. The only one who is fully qualified to be prez and won the People's Vote is Hillary.

Everyone I know will be voting for McCain.

Who cares????? He is going to loose no matter who he picks!!!

Yes!

Biden….. brings solid experience and will take on the Swift Boat crap from Cheney-Rove team! Obama-Biden, good news…

Biden is straight forwad, doesn't take crap from anyone and he warned against invading Iraq. He is very grounded and also intellegent. The GOP should be worried if Joe is the man.

Why would all you Clinton lovers want Hillary for VP?

What would be the point?

Obama President, Hillary Supreme Court Justice

I will never vote for O-loser and Biden.

Hillary or McCain 08!!

Looks like McCain for me!

what is that line about CNN no bias no bull i bet you there are a lot of people trying to have a say on this subject and CNN will not print it. who is moderating jack cafferty

Can't wait! They've really managed to make this campaign one hell of an exciting time, whether you're on his side or not. Uncomparable to boring McCain and his band of has beens!

I have to say that I am simply flabbergasted at anyone who supports John McCain. Have you been living on the moon the last 8 years?

If you are voting Old MacDonald then why the hell are so worried about who Obama is picking. I supporet Obama. I can wait. No problem. Its all good.
Obama '08

Hey Art,
I've meet some Hillary people and they don't need any help from Republicans getting stoked up. I don't know what their raw numbers are, but they are like a bunch of wolverines. The only thing that saved me was I admitted I was voting for McCain. It was like an enemy of my enemy moment.

DNC party should be fun, like a cage match, last man or woman standing.

Obama has a very slim lead in the feel good national vote. McCain has the lead in the one that counts, the electorial vote, 274 to 264. Looks like dejvu all over again.

WE all must vote for B,H.OBAMA becouse ALLAH wants us to do it. ALLAH AKBAR,ALLAH AKBAR,ALLAH AKBAR.

You have got to be kidding me….with all that is going on in the world now CNN has to sit in front of our elected officials homes to see if anyone is moving around so they might possibly be a running mate???? So what if Biden is the VP candidate, the election is still over two months away and the race is going to be tight. This will mean nothing in a few days. Americans are so used to reality TV now that they cant live in reality themselves. Go out and do something for your neighbor or a family member. Give back to a country that is still the greatest ever in the history of the world!

Obama – Biden. What a gift for John McCain!

Ask yourself – "Do I really want songbird McCain to be my president?"
Ask the Viet Nam vets, find out about the "cross-in-the-dirt" story in Solzhenitsyn's book "Gulag Archipeligo" – do you think he stole the story from McCain? But, wait, Solzhenitsyn's story had the cross in the sand, (my bad).

"Cars have recently pulled into the driveway — including a police car — and Biden's daughter, son, and wife are now believed to be inside."

Didn't his daughter and wife die in a car crash in the early-1970s leaving only Biden and the two sons?

did you see how many speakers there will be on Monday when Michelle will be speaking. did you see how many speakers will be speaking when Hillary speaks on Thursday. hope she is not the last speaker they will probably run out of time before they get to her. talk about disrespect

This has me sitting on the edge of my chair – I hope that it is not Hilliary – while I could deal with her but she brings Bill and all of his drama. I think that it is great if he has selected Biden to be his vice president. Senator Biden is knowledgeable about foreign affairs, has a great personaility, and most of all can relate to the average John and Jane Blow

OBAMA/BIDEN 08

If Joe Biden gets in as VP would that help the cause of abortion to be eliminated?

Now it would be really funny if someone from the household left with the media following them and they go to Target or someplace like that…lol

RJ grow up…McCain would LOVE it if people were THIS interested in his choice…his turn is coming…let's see how he acts…of course that will also be his 100th birthday so don't expect too much!!!

Well if it's Joe Biden then OBAMA is admitting he does not have enough experience to be President. Enough said on that part. If he believes Biden is what he will need to gain the White House he is again so mislead. Biden is and has been a laughing joke in Washington. He is bad as the Kennedys, Kerrys, Deans, Pelosi and the like.

Hey RJ in CA. I hate to show your ignorance (it's too easy) but any poll that is dated August 18-25 is probably not acurate, as it's only August 22nd. Nice try. Desperate times (and angry, old, senile, lying, cheating adulterers) require desperate measures.

It's going to be a 3am text! LOL
Seriously – no matter who Senator Obama chooses I will support them fully.

Whoo whoo is RIGHT… Go Operation Chaos….

RJ,

Are you getting your McCain "points" for bloggin about him? You've posted this identical response to other CNN articles. Are those points redeemable for cigarettes or what? I'd go for the luggage cause that's some nice luggage.

obama spent over fifty million dollars on campaign advrtising in july telling you why you should not vote for mccain. now they are in a dead heat. somebody is sending somebody a signal.

obama / clinton or no vote from me

Why Biden Would Be Bad: There's a bit of C-SPAN tape that should surface quickly if he's named. … Remember, it wasn't Biden's plagiarism that knocked him out of the 1988 race. It was "'I think I have a much higher I.Q. than you do"–a bizarre videotaped putdown that Biden immediately called into question with five (5) boasts about his academic record, four (4) of which turned out to be easily disproved B.S. …

very funny, Biden could hardly swing a few votes in the primary, now he will be the VP choice??????????

Agree with Oam. Ummm….It is the media dragging this out.Obama said he would tell us when he is ready. Obama is not the one saying it will be Friday at 3am, then Friday at noon, then Friday at 5. THE MEDIA keeps this up.

I'm so glad it's not Hillary. He would have no chance of winning if she was on the ticket.

Eric, are you seriously thinking that an online poll done by AOL which has more than likely has been raided by a conservative website or something is a credible pol source? For God's sake, it shows Obama losing EVERY STATE. Even Illinois.

Please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! not hilary

Biden will make a great attack dog, but I worry about his BIG MOUTH! I don't know. All this anticipation for Joe Biden! What about George Michelle? I am glad he is not picking Hillary. I voted for Hillary, but she and Bill would always be making news. They would be very distracting.

If it's Biden, it's too good to be true. The most arrogant man in the Senate picks the second most arrogant man in the Senate as a running mate!

Maybe they're leaving in a police car because you won't let them out of their house without bombarding them with questions you know they won't answer.

Lest we forget…didn't Joe Biden drop out of the race for president several cycles ago because of plagiarizing speeches verbatim…is this the change we can believe in??

John McCain 2008!!

D**m! This is so much like the night before Christmas!

Whats under the tree! Whats under the tree! I can't take it anymore!

Will somebody slap me!

-

Just Kidding:-)

People still use AOL?

I hope Joe knows how many houses he owns.

Bye bye Democratic Party.

Clinton 2012

So this is his Delaware home, does that mean he has more than one home? Just curious because I am going to vote for the ticket that owns the most homes. McCain has a big lead though unless Obama's VP has a slew of them. I figure the richest guy is the one who knows the most about the economy. Obama says he knows best about how to fix the economy. But I say show me the money.

If he picks Biden, even a Republican like me might be forced to support Obama. Biden's background is one that I can truly identify with- the common man of the race.

We are all playing into the suspense, it is starting to get me down, enough already, get it over with already so the signs can be printed and I can go to sleep peacefuly tonight.. If it is Joe Biden, it is an excellent choice, but not really earth shattering. As for McCain's choice, if he picks Romney, they can have a lot of fun counting how many houses they each own–the rich will rule and us common folks don't stand a chance.

To quote Rush Limbaugh, conservatives are saying "Please, please, please, let it be Joe Biden." There's just so much ammo that can be used against this guy.

I agree with Art that it's not going to be close, but it's going to be the other way. Historically, the Democrat usually has a large lead at this point, then the Republican makes up ground. Even Dole made up a lot of ground from how far behind he was earlier. If it's basically tied right now, I think that means a landslide for McCain. Obama's just got too many negatives.

No Know, it's above my pay grade, and Greasy Joe. Great pair if you're looking for unfunny comics. Just call the the dummie duo.

"Is the Delaware Democrat gathering his family ahead of a big announcement?"

Either that or he's marshalling his forces to attack the media out front.

F A N T A S T I C….HOPE, its Joe Biden.

Well, that's cable news for ya…they have all time in the world to talk about these things as oppsed to nighly news cast. It may have been a little much to have camera crews out there all day. But I'm betting it's Biden now.

Setting up stakeouts at the homes of all the VP choices is silly and outlandish. Use the time to research and educate the public of the issues the next president and vice president will face so they can intellectually voice their opinion. Leave the stalking to the paparazzi.

The only ones who look more foolish than Barack at this point are the MSM

Paris makes BOTH Barack and the MSM look, like, TOTALLY STUPID at this point

EVEN BRITNEY looks smarter than ALL OF THEM at this point!!!!!!!!!!

Like, at this point, who CARES anymore??????

It's not Hillary, so the race-card-playing-empty-suit will go DOWN in November

We PUMA's will MAKE SURE of it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Bye, bye, Barack – time to go rejoin your racist hate-filled church to make CERTAIN you'll still be a Junior Senator from Chicago

I'm SURE all those "Christians" will revote you into office

Yay! This makes voting for McCain so much easier!

I think Biden is another Dick. After this announcement more of Hillary supporter going to vote for McCain because Obama is lied, he said his ready but the real thing is he not ready yet.

I don't really care who Obama names as his running mate. I can't wait to get ino the voting booth in November and vote against that empty suit, He is by far the most unqualified person ever to run for president.

It's interesting how the media acts like all this is so silly, but the only silly ones are the media. They are so desperate to say anything that they spend hours talking about the same mindless rumors. There are so many things going on in this Country and World that are newsworthy, so just wait until tomorrow and stop this childish behavior.

Biden is amusing, and that's about all I can say. If he's the one, Obama is going to need a lot of help to get elected. With Hillary he would have stood a better chance.

You Obama Haters Have Your Man, Go About Your Business!
Just Can Wait To Post Your Hate. That's What You Guys Do Best Period.

RJ,CA;

How About All Those childish, Sophomoric Ads, And Nauseating Lies.

And Lets Not Forget Those Stupid Tire Gages Obama's Total Energy Plan Foir America.

How About That Little White Lie About Not Wanting To Visit The Troops.

Next Time McMain Talks To "Paris" Ask For Us How Many Houses She Owns.

Now Part Your Sheets And Go To Bed, All You Obama Haters!

Hey,
Has anyone activated the tracking device on Al Gore?? Hmmmm.

RJ, you must be old.

SHeesh! Stop stalking people! You will know when he decides to say, Why dont you report some REAL news?!?!?!

Please please please please please please please please please pick JOE!

Carville and Begala are stirring the pot of angry Clinton supporters. Why? Because if Clinton is not on the ticket nobody will care anymore what they have to say. Keeping the Clinton anger alive is job security for them.

Maybe the police are there because the neighbors have complained about the gaggle of reporters hanging out and disrupting the lives of everyone around?

I'm 65 and I think this is great. Not stuck in horse and buggy days. If he advances everything else into the 21st century this will be great (can we start by making new technology MANDATORY for our politicians?? hint hint hint)

Just think CNN – what if you all were stuck in the radio world – we don't want to be stuck in the previous century either !!!!!!

If a president isn't forward thinking, we're all in trouble. (frankly, I'm sick of hearing about NAM – we have bigger fish to fry)

Go Obama/whomever '08 – know you have been very thoughtful in this process.

Great. I can't wait to hear what speech Biden plagerizes in his acceptance speech! "we wil fight them on the beaches…."

A neophite and a plagerist. What a loser ticket.

Obama/Biden!!!!!!!!

No to McSame!

Sounds more like a hostage situation.

Sorry it is not Hillary Clinton. Hopefully Joe Biden can bring Obama down to earth and quit playing his games. This is an election to run the best country in the world! So why the big deal about text messaging?????? Make the announcement and get on with dealing with the economy and the Iraq War and the war in Afganistan and gas prices ETC.

Evan Bayh of Indiana

You'll see.

Poor Judas the Traitor Richardson wasn't the chosen one????? He must be so UPSET

Poor thing – he MUST HAVE GOTTEN SO OFF on the thought of being the first Hispanic VP….!

Poor thing………! Bam Bam "changes" like the wind…….! That's the ONLY "change" we can believe in!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Judas Richardson can console himself with the thirty pieces of silver he got from Bam Bam

ROFLMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Mr. hair plugs? Bwahahahahaha!!!! Obama is selecting the "dumbest man in the Senate? Bwahahahaha!!!! This is going to be a cakewalk. And I can't stand McCain but at least he won't destroy the country.

Then again, Bam Bam has ALWAYS looked rather clownish unless he's reading from a pre-written speech on his teleprompter

All the "um, uh, um, duh's" make him look even dumber than Paris Hilton! At LEAST she doesn't stutter!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! She states PROUDLY (without stuttering!) "It's HOT!" or "He's HOT!" or "That's HOT!"

Yikes! I NEVER thought in a million years that I would say that Paris is smarter than anyone!!!!!! But I think she's smarter than Obama……at least she doesn't stutter when asked a question……!

LOL! Bam Bam looks more foolish by the second! What an anti-climax!!!!!!!!!

the word "anti-climactic" comes to mind

hopeful

I think the fact that Obama is sending out a text message to tell us who his VP will be is further proof that he is a celebrity more than a politician!

I'm staying tuned, maybe they'll order pizza. Or will it be Chinese? I'm on the edge of my seat!

I hope it's Biden or a Hillary-Surprise – either unveiled on Wednesday night.

John McCain has convinced me that he is senile… and a poor choice to run such a complex country. His fellow POW Philip Butler isn't voting for McCain, and neither am I.

Obama/Biden/Clinton(?)08!!!!!!!!!!!

Well, david jack, YOU sure were here.

Hope you PUMA/McCainers wake up and smell the 100-year war soon. Getting out in 2012 my derriere. I feel sorry for you guys. Because in 5 yrs, if McCain has been in power, you all will feel just as sick about your vote as do those that voted Bush into his second term.

McCain/Moses 2008(B.C)

I think you media hacks are about to pee your pants. Since when has a VP pick generated so mcuh press? Really? What is with all the hype, its just going to be another Washington insider no matter who he picks……wake me up when it all over.

Seriously, can we just start all over? Kick all the bumbs out!

if it is anybody but Clinton it'll be a disaster. Biden. they cannot be serious. The BO campaign has to get over itself. I feel like BO and his campaign are being extraordinarily patronizing with all this coyness about the VP pick. We are seriously going to loose to grandpa Munster McCain November. This was going to be so easy until the Obama and legion of idiots ruined any chances we had to take back the presidency.

greater moves for …freedom,democracy,and capitalism….

Oh wow, so all it will take is a 5 gallon bucket full worth of voters to pull Obama over the victory line? That's about how many votes Biden got in the primary! Go Republicans…..! Go McCain! Looks like your strategy worked after-all!!!!

McCain 2008!!

boring……..men in ties. More reason to sit this one out.

One can only hope…..

RJ…I agree with you….who cares now. This is childish, overblown, and certainly stoking Obama's ego!

Sick of it!

Obama is brilliant!!! Even the media are waiting by their cell phones and blackberries. He really knows how to make his supporters feel like and be part of the process.

I think Biden is the right choice. He's perfect for fighting the Republican lie machine. The silence is deafening. Everyone is excited! Obama is a genius.

Ladies and gentlemen,

Let's all get a good night sleep and when the good Lord wakes us up tomorrow morning; let's get busy electing the next President of the United States of America; Senator Barack Obama, Amen!

I am excited, I think they smuggled Biden out in that flower truck, he is on his way to Springfield now. Connie from Indiana

AOL Poll? That's pretty funny! You were making a joke right?

Wow, RJ,

A poll without sampling error! They must have polled every American to not have sampling error!

Your ignorance is quite apparent! And as Glenn Beck has pointed out, ignorance is your God-given right! Yes, mathematics doesn't interfere with McCain's policies, why should it with your punditry?

How many homes does elitist Obama own again?

This story is slightly of target but any way during ww2 the German we re throw eight eights on these guy one said he wont his mother the other guy said you mean gran .mother no my real mother ,you have not seen her since four years old I want my mother. Their may be a hidden message in this post.

Obama/Biden '08

Great choice! I will cast my vote with pride in November.

Make 'em all WAIT Obama! Send out the email on Monday! Everyone's talking about it – even the haters.

Too bad no one's excited over McCain's pick. It's simple, really. Repub/conservatives are in fits over the candidate in general, and his Veep "short list". So instead of jumping up in anticipation for the future and flag bearer of their party, they're busy trying to bring down the Dems and stoke Clinton anger among the party.

Don't worry G.O.P., America will focus on McCsame – and when they do, they'll see a wealthy warmonger maverick with no support from his own base, and who's going to get seriously hurt by the Barr libertarian candidacy.

Heck, even T. Boone Pickens met with Obama!

Obama/whomever will crush McCain/whomever. It's not even going to be close.

GO BIDEN GO BIDEN GO!

If Biden is VP and Hillary is not my vote goes to McCain. No way I'm going to vote for someone with no experience and just fills the minds of despondent people with things they want to here and are not in the realm of reality just so he can get their votes.. Sick…

Go drink your milk and fall asleep John, let the young and innovative people lead us into the 21st century, not an old washed-up Vietnam war loser.

People who are writing disgusted lines– Are A Disgusting Type anyway!!

I am excited!! Obama Obama Obama!!

As a Geriactric Nurse I know the condition most men over 70 are in. I doubt that McCain has the mental aguity or physical stamina it is going to take to try to get this country into shape. Sadly enough, I think it is too big of a job for any one man to undertake.

Congress seems to be sleeping and if this election drags on any longer so will most of the citizens of this nation.

We need more than change….
We need a miracle.

To Ed,FL. You exited and can't wait. Take a walk to restroom. No HRC – no Obama.

AOL straw poll?

Who uses AOL these days. Old folks!

AOL straw poll is useless.

Hmmm. Emile Jones, Illinois Senate President and Obama's mentor, just retired so his son could take over his seat in the grand old tradition of Chicago Democratic political nepotism.

Maybe Jones is being offered the VP slot for all the favors he did Obama by putting his name on legislation he never authored.

RJ you are a complete idiot. Kool-Aid drinkers racist B@stard I see you have no idea about politics. Follow what you hear not what you know

Mike Dukakis chose Lloyd Bentsen as his running mate and it did NOT help. Kennedy chose Johnson to solve a similar problem to Barack's. Reagan chose Bush. For Obama to choose anyone except Clinton,Kerry or Gore is, it seems to me, providing his opponent ammunition and making a difficult task unnecessarily more difficult.
But what do I know?

yay

Ha, AOL poll. Only people that still use AOL are old people, and people unable to keep up with changing technology. What is the Web TV poll currently showing?

JOE BIDEN IS A GOOD MAN !
THIS TICKET IS POWERFUL BRUH !!!!!

MCCAIN IS GOING DOWN !!!!!!

hilarious, david…. apparently you're interested too in taking the time to post that comment.

Hi, CNN

You are showing real color of your partisanship towards Clinton. It is true that rethug nut job once said CNN = Clinton News Network. Stop fueling the fire. Lot of is at stake here. Shivers should go through your spine just by the thought of McCain winning this election. 4 more years of repub monarchy in this country will put us atleast 10 years back. Clinton lost fair and squarely. GET OVER IT.

"The AOl Straw Poll – REAL people voting REALTIME (without “sampling errors”): August 18-25: 117,545 total votes cast: McCain 68%, Obama 32%. "

If by that you mean "real" people constantly deleting their cookies to vote hundreds of times to skew the poll, then you are correct. Common PUMA tactic to make yourselves look larger then you really are.

To you who so excited. "above my pay grade." Sooooo smart. Be excited when your Obama will fly home on November 4 to Chicago. No HRC — NO Obama.

Wow, I really think William Ayers would make a better choice than Biden. He's known Obama for 15 years, has an intimate knowledge of military matters (having tried to bomb the Pentagon) and also knows our law enforcement system through having been a fugitive from justice.
OBAMA/AYERS 08!

Yes we can-(be friends with terrorists and get nominated by the Democrat Party)

This story is slightly of target but any way during ww2 the German we re throw eight eights on these guy one said he wont his mother the other guy said you mean gran .mother no my real mother ,you have not seen her since four years old I want my mother. Their may be a hidden messager in this post.

McCain will choose Petraeus for VP. Obama needs a better VP than Biden to beat McCain. What is McBush's greatest qualification for the Presidency? He dropped napalm on Vietnamese villagers and got shot down. America wants another killer like Georgie Jr. for their president.

Biden is fine but the guy needs a decent haircut. The combover has got to go.

seems that the only people interested in this biting off their fingernails is CNN.

and you too!!

(and me too!! I can't believe I'm watching a stakeout of biden's house!!)

No matter who Obama picks please understand that it will be Obama who people do not vote for and Biden will be a temporary bounce next week. Biden will be a riot in any VP debate tying to limit his answers to the actual questions asked (Joe has a big problem with diarrhea of the mouth).
Hillary supporters are ready to cause problems next week, should be fun.

I wonder who participates in the AOL poll – could it be people who have AOL? I.e. old people who don't know better.

It appears it will be BIDEN…………….AND WHAT AN AWESOME CHOICE……………Here's to OBAMA/BIDEN…………………Hopefully………..

…………Still keeping my fingers crossed the Dark Horses don't make it to the party……………………….

McCain = DRAFT for all persons between the ages of 18 – 30 years old

Let the ball roll!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!…hury up dude!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

"Obama's childish antics"? Hello? Excuse me, but I think all Obama has done is not name his VP candidate yet, which is exactly what McCain has also not done. The hype, the childishness, the breathless speculation, is all from the media. Just as McCain will do eventually, Obama is going to name his choice on his schedule, not the press's schedule.

RJ, CA….do you even understand how idiotic you sound? Do you have any idea what polling is all about? Go hit the books and then you'll realize how foolish you sound.

Obama for America! I can't imagine McCain being the President. A former POW who has been tortured for 6 years!? Is he really mentally stable? All we need is McCain having flashbacks of his POW days, waking up in the middle of the night in a cold sweat ready to push the red button and drop nuclear weapons on Russia or North Korea. The question is DO WE REALLY TRUST MCCAIN AS PRESIDENT?

What areas were polled RJ? The trailor home park areas? If so..are you really suprised? LOL

OBAMA '08

Too bad the republicans will win with out senator Clinton. What a sad day for the U.S.

RJ,CA,

If you're posting, you're paying close attention.

BTW $273,000 for his domestic staff, every American can relate to dealing with that expense.

Stick a fork and turn'em. He's done.

Re: AOL Straw Poll

Ron Paul dominating back in January. Ha!
http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y17/Sentinelrv/Other%20Images/AOLStrawPoll.png

John McCain is a Bush Republican… his policies will continue to walk this nation down the wrong road. Plus which, the man looks like a robot when he talks with those arms and hands never going that high….Biden is an awesome choice!

Obama/Biden 08

RJ you are stupid, McCain will screw us worse than Bush did, he is a carbon copy of bush, everyone was blinded by him in 2000,

OBAMA All The Way

Biden is a good choice, and has attitude enough to be worth all the hype. As for McCain being a "grown up" as suggested by a prevcious post, have you forgotten "bomb bomb Iran" and other silly antics?

If he picks Biden, Obama will be a hypocrite. Biden is an insider and has been in Washington for more than 30 years. Biden helped to make Washington what it is today. What happened to the idea of changing government.? Obama is proving to be what Rev Wright said he was….just another politician.

let the games begin.

Ridiculous. It's like the VP's going to decide the outcome of the election.

RJ/david jack – Who said it was going to happen today? The media did. The media has been camping out making this whole thing such a big thing to keep us glued to the TV and websites. It worked. It got everyone worked up.

I do think Biden will make an awesome running mate if it's true.

RJ, CA,

Go grow a brain and suck it up after you see your John McDracula lose on November 4th and say hello to your soon-to-be 44th President, Barack Obama

Obama is a genius, he's taken control of the news cycle without announcing anything

I'm personally hoping that Obama goes against the norm and has a two part announcement, 1) Chet Edwards or Bayh for VP, 2) If elected, Biden will be his Sec. of State. Edwards has foreign policy experience and represents change, while announcing Biden as the Sec. of State would give a third person to fundraise, answers all foreign policy questions, and means that Biden's mouth is less of an issue. Unlikely, but it would be close to flawless.

Any activity at Kaine's house??

LMNO Straw poll – REAL people in my head voting in REAL TIME (without "space aliens"): August 18-25: 8,000,000 total votes cast: McCain -300%, Obama 10 million infinity%

Nighty-night, McCain Ensure drinkers!

I signed up for the text message along with all my friends. Republicans know their screwed with the youth generation, and they are shaking in their boots. Not only did I sign up for the text but, I then made my first donation of 25 dollars to Obama. They really sucked me in with the excitement, and I am not really that excitable. I can only imagine the inroads they are making with those more into the political process.

At Least We Know Obama Didnt Pick Liary Clinton! He Have Her A Phone Call This Morning At 3 Am!

McCain is the better man! This B.O. crap is wearing old!

The most activity of the night is starting to arise. People on cellphones who are show of stress and anxiety as they rush from area to area

Tell me AGAIN why Michelle will be speaking at the Convention??????

Does she want to let us know that she's REALLY proud of her country again?????????????

LOL – tough sell after her hate-filled thesis about what a "mean" country we are….the hate-filled thesis she was able to write thanks to Affirmative Action

Even NASTY Michelle admits she didn't REALLY have the grades to get into an ivy-league school……Wonder HOW she got in there

LOL!!!!!! No doubt due to reverse-racism!!!!!

That's the story of NASTY Michelle's life………USE REVERSE-RACISM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey,
Has anyone activated the tracking device on Al Gore?? Hmmmm.

RJ, you must be old.

The folks complaining are obviously not supporters. Shut up already! Whatever it is let it be!

So, Obama has to chose someone who can win him votes and he picks Joe Biden?? Are you kidding me?? Wow…Obamas a smart one!

Biden offers experience and little more… Hillary offers 18 million strong supporters and experience!! I think Ralph Nader said it best when he said he would be dumb to pick Biden or Bayh..

PS- OBAMANITES, I DONT THINK THAT RIDICULING HILLARY OR HER SUPPORTERS WILL HELP IN MAKING US WANT TO VOTE FOR OBAMA….DUH PEOPLE!!

Who knew Obama was such a big ole drama queen?? He is acting like he's running for president of the JR High School student body! This was fun and exciting for a couple days, but now it's getting older than either McCain or Biden.

the "AOL Straw Poll"? Lol. AOL? The domain most folks put into their spam filter without any furrther qualification?

Isn't it illegal to stalk a member of Congress? Just wondering….

Obama, just Biden his time?

And this will be his big ticker-tape, texted, e-mailed secret????

Good grief.

Any moment now and the 20 million of us who fully support Hillary Clinton will know what we are doing in the fall. If Hillary Clinton is not on the ticket, we wont be voting for Barack Obama. We could have had it all.

Sheesh! If I was one of these VP possibles I'd be afraid to take a leak for fear of seeing a CNN or Fox camera peering through the curtains!

I guess we'll just have to keep Biden our time….
(sorry, couldn't help it)

There must be some other more newsworthy subjects folks. Get a news life!

"McCain for president — a grown-up ready to do a grown-up job!"

HAHAHAHA!

The desperation cascading off the Obama haters fills me with sweet, sweet nourishment.

McCain grown up? Old, yes, but he needs to grow up. Those childish ads about Paris and Britney felt good for a white, but they are now going to cost him.

scared much, RJ?

This is completely ridiculous. I can't believe how much press is being given to the buildup to the VP selection. How about just wait until the announcement and report that? Anything less is not news.

I'm a big Obama supporter: Veteran's for Obama. But, I think that it is a BIG mistake for Obama not to select Hillary Clinton. Yes, she would be a handful, but a strong leader would be able to harness all of her energy, ambition, experience, and policy wisdom…. I still support Obama, but am not confident he's making the best decision (for the country or the party).

Hey MSNBC is reporting that it is NOT Bayh or Kaine and that it will be announced tomorrow morning.

Any knucklehead who is still using AOL, is probably dumb enough to vote for McCain. 1997 called, and they'd like their ISP back.

Biden? Bad choice. He should have picked Hillary, not an old white guy.

Obama/Gore 08!

To bad he can't get everyone as excited over the serious issues our country is facing rather than this childish vp guessing game.

I thought I came into TMZ.com at first when I saw that. Paparazzi behavior…

I wish Obama would pick someone else, not too crazy about Biden, but I would never vote on Mccain – I couldnt do that to this country.

Um… David Jack I know plenty of people so excited, including me!!! Sorry you're bitter because your candidate can't win. Get used to it. Obama/Biden 08!!!

Ok, now this is getting on my skin. Obama should at least give us a time frame at least to save CNN from spying on people with their cameras.

RJ, CA: AOI Straw Poll? Are talking about some website poll? How meaningless. I'm sure McCain will let you borrow his quit room, unless he's already taking a nap.

Obama is so childish.

WOW!! Biden and his family are together at, of all places….

THEIR OWN HOME!!!

This isn't news, get real! Obama's VP doesn't matter now that he has started hitting HOME with his attacks against McCain. The right wing is in full defense mode and thats right where we want them.

OBAMA 08!!

BIDEN EH GOOD PICK

"McCain for president — a grown-up ready to do a grown-up job!"

You nailed it pal!

Biden is just the attack dog that Obama needs. I really hope this pans out, he can really lay into McCain and give the ticket some fire.

The media owns the blame on this one, y'all. What, now that Michael Phelps has his gold medals, you're desperate for something else to keep the viewing public hooked? Back in the day, this decision was made in smoky back rooms and no one cared. But it's August and things are slow. Give it a rest, newshounds. And, fellow citizens, recognize where the hype is coming from.

yes, yes, yes!!!!! Obama/Biden '08 is the ticket to win it! just announce already before the news orgs figure it out!

This would be perfect. It's Oscar Night for media. Obama makes the crowd giddy with anticipation.
The nominees are Hillary Clinton for "The Girl In The Blue Dress", Bill Richardson for "The Mouse That Roared", and Joe Biden for "Copy Cat". Hussein, the envelope please. And the winner is Joe Biden playing a has been, plagerist in "Copy Cat".
And the losers? Anyone who thinks this guy brings anything worthwhile to the table.

Biden reminds me of a Stewart Granger, is he English?

Nope. It's not going to be Biden.
It will be Bayh.

If it's Biden, I feel kind of ripped off. They have been reporting him as the front runner for weeks. I was hoping for a surprise since we have been put off waiting for all this time. But again, Obama is politics as usual and not the Change we COULD have believed in. Sad disappointment.

NOO!!! Not loud mouth Joe Biden…Im sick of him…I must say that like Nader said I didnt think Obama was this dumb, but I guess I was wrong…Why would you pick someone who isnt even in a pivotal state, and who nobody knows outside of moderate political junkies??? This choice does nothing besides let him say that he has someone that has experience, but he couldve had that with Hillary, along with 18 million voters!!!

I declare Barack Obama the stupidest man alive! You pick JOE BIDEN out of everyone!!!! Thats the best you can do!?!?!?! Geezzz….The end is Near….

PS-OBAMANITES SHOULD RESPECT CLINTON SUPPORTERS BC RIDICULING HER AND US DOESNT WANT TO MAKE US VOTE FOR OBAMA!!! DUH!!!

A ticket to nowhere!

RJ, CA…

You are quoting an AOL online poll? There is no way McCain is going to win in California by 60+ percent… all that poll means is that McCain supporters like AOL. Come back on Nov. 5 and then will talk.

This round of politics is getting old! It's been going an forever and every one tries to come up with a new angle to make it exciting. Unfortunately they all fail. Just give it to McCain and let's get on with life.

PUMA………………….

McCAIN WILL WIN AGAINST OBAMA…..
HILLARY SHOULD BE NOMINEEEEE

CLINTON 2012

Tell it like it is, Joe. Finally a real person might enter the race.

You seem to be pretty interested david jack, seeing as you're the 5th person to comment on here. Very happy if it's Biden. Obama 08!

Mr. McCain cant tell the truith about how many houses he has how can we trusr him to tell the truith in anything.

The big moment is worth waiting for. Go Obama!

Anybody other than Hillary and Obama looses millions of votes.

If he is that bad then America looses

Then again, Bam Bam has ALWAYS looked rather clownish unless he's reading from a pre-written speech on his teleprompter

All the "um, uh, um, duh's" make him look even dumber than Paris Hilton! At LEAST she doesn't stutter!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! She states PROUDLY (without stuttering!) "It's HOT!" or "He's HOT!" or "That's HOT!"

Yikes! I NEVER thought in a million years that I would say that Paris is smarter than anyone!!!!!! But I think she's smarter than Obama……at least she doesn't stutter when asked a question……!

I'M SO EXCITED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey, RJ in CA:

I'm not above the fray so I have no problem in telling you that I think AOL is for old-farts, and you're probably one of them…and we all know the old-farts are breaking for McShame in roughly the same numbers as your beloved, unscientific straw poll – which, according to your reporting, was conducted OVER ONE WEEK'S TIME.

That's not even a real poll. And I suppose people can vote twice, or, say…ten times?

Nighty-night to you, too…

Good choice Senator Obama.

Anything that is hyped this much is sure to be a disappointment. Then again, that pretty much sums up Obama so it's not really much of a shock that he's staging all these antics. It's just your VP. Big deal.

I'm done for Democratic because BHO select the wrong guy for VP. I'm going to vote McCain for the next President of the United States.

True unity would be Obama/Clinton. Disunity is snubbing Clinton. Oh well. Time to hold my nose and vote Obama. I would rather have voted for Biden for Pres than Obamalamala.

How boring and drawn out this is. If BO has teased everyone and he picks Biden, BORING! BO is tied or behind in most polls now after the Dems should be way ahead. If he doesn't pick Clinton, he's doomed.

where is all this change that Mr. Expectancy is espousing. It seems like old times with the good old boys is the in thing.

Out with the old and in with the old, is that the message from the Obama Camp

I don't like to gamble with my country and my life savings therefore I prefer a known leader who is experienced and has an experienced staff to guide him to protect our values and our country.

McCain is not risky, Obama is risky.

Wait a minute…

Isn't Joe Biden the guy who cheated and plagerized ???!!!!

Senator Biden would be a fantastic VP candidate and would provide a very strong ticket for November. Our country would benefit. Can't the McCain supporters on this site stop the BS and negative comments and focus on a healthy competition in this election, or our you afraid of this.

Biden would seal the deal for me. As an independent I've been leaning to Obama but still not 100%. This is the kind of partner Obama needs and would win my vote no contest come Nov.

BREAKING NEWS!!!

Barack Obama leaves his half-brother George Obama in Kenya living in a shack and slums earning less than $1 per day. Check CNN for cover story.

And you all want this guy to be President? If he won't even help his half BLOOD brother what makes you think he can help America????

what's rthe big secret? it's all about the media coverage and the free ride that continues for Obama! thanks mil

Okayeeeee………………………………………………yeah…

This truly is very exciting and full of suspense! The McCain camp HAS to be so jealous because they could never get this much anticipation – not in a MILLION YEARS! Which is just about how old John is!

No one has ever done this before, right? Hmmmmm…..

CHANGE I CAN BELIEVE IN!

I cant wait to see the Republican Party CRUMBLE after they lose this election.

It's called KARMA BABY! LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

So much for change, huh? Business as usual with the Dems.

please, please, please don't let it be Hillary…

…because I really, really don't want to have to vote for…

Barack thoushallnotsayhismiddlename Obama!

please!!

Obama's not hyping this up! The media is. He announced when he was going to make his choice public. He's not stringing anyone along… The only childish antics are those of his enemies.

The VP announcement will be out today, by mid-night Eastern time!

I will admit it, I was warming to Obama. I have decided at this moment, I will not be voting for him this November. I will be writing in Hillary's name. His ego is beyond ignoring anymore. I'm not even angry, it's just a huge let down. This whole thing is ridiculous. What a boring ticket. Stop trying to make it seem exciting.

Who cares which loser a loser picks.

Whoever he picks my job is to always pray for their wisdom, and the decision they makes for America. God bless them and their families and GOD bless AMERICA.

Clinton would be much more valuable in another position. The republicans would love to have her on the ticket though…so many more ways for them to attack. Obama will make the right choice and he will surround him with team players that will make the United States a better place to live.

If anybody is complaining about all this hype! GIVE IT A REST, it's about time we get some excitment around someone other then a Republican and the TIRED Clintons!!!!!!! Go Obama!!!!!

I will admit it, I was warming to Obama. I have decided at this moment, I will not be voting for him this November. I will be writing in Hillary's name. His ego is beyond ignoring anymore. I'm not even angry, it's just a huge let down. This whole thing is ridiculous. What a boring ticket. Stop trying to make it seem exciting.

Obama likes to play silly games with the media and the voters. He's not mature enough to run our country.

There's a flurry of activity at my place .. maybe I'm going to get the job offer! Can't wait for the announcement!

Obama 08

Goodbye Obama, idiot. Hello President John McCain.

I hope its Obama/Sebelius.
Biden supported Lieberman when he was running against Ned Lamont who was a Progressive Democrat who won the Democratic Primary in 2007.
Then Lieberman created his own Party .
I do not trust Biden.
Gov Kathleen Sebelius is what the Obama VP Ticket needs to break away from Washington Politics as usual.
If Obama is a Candidate of change and hope Gov Sebelius is the one he should announce tonight.

RJ, AOL users are usually repubs…cause they are so patriotic!!…lol…not a scientific poll my friend.

Go OBAMA! McCain is only interested in having the power for himself and not concerned about the good of the people.

If his choice is anything other than Hillary it shows that he has NO vision.

RJ, CA – REAL Republicans that is.. wow what a surprise lol Dream on,
Take a nap, (if you can remember which house you live in.)

Biden would be a great choice…

Glad it won't be Hillary (crossing my fingers)
She's too good to work with this empty, hallow speaker cult leader.

Hillary, we are 100% behind you… you don't even have to worry because even if you became the VP we still can't vote for this unqualified snake.

MCAIN SAYS "NOUN, VERB, POW"

……they're watching the Phillies on cable in HD?

LOL! Bam Bam looks more foolish by the second! What an anti-climax!!!!!!!!!

Read behind the scene story on George Obama, If Obama does not care about his half brother's plight will he care for average Americans. Poor Americans just see the lights which make them blind. To invoke white voters he involves his grandparents and to get black votes he talks about his black roots. A selfish hybrid.

If Obama want's to win he should pick Clinton, it's his only hope. Otherwise I will vote for my husband and that will make 2 votes for James !!

Obama campaign said they will announce in the morning. I hope its Biden!!!

Why is everyone getting so excited over a bunch of cars and family members meeting in front of Biden's house? Maybe he is just having a nice family dinner with some friendly police officers because he wanted to have a nice friday night. I'm sure Lindsay Lohan has the same situation goin on at her house right now and people are not freaking out about her being nominated as the veep!

His wife is there!….His Kids are there!…..Maybe it's dinner time?

John McCain '08
Less Jobs. More Wars

LOL YOU PEOPLE ARE DUMB OBAMA HASNT SAID ANYTHING ABOUT HIS VP PICK THE MEDIA PLAYING WITH YALL HEADS AND YALL SUCKING IT UP.

I would like to see a Obama-Clinton ticket but Obama-Biden will do.

It's funny that the people who are complaining about the coverage are STILL PAYING ATTENTION ON FRIDAY NIGHT. If it's so nauseating, then STOP checking the website. You are clearly interested if you read the article about "Activity at the Bidens" Stop kidding yourselves—you love this.

I guess I will be voting for somebody OTHER than McCain or Obama…. wonder if I can get my money back from the contributions I made?!?!?!? This is NOT the smartest choice Obama could have made.

Joe Biden should have been the Democrats' presidential nominee.

He is a stronger candidate than Obama.

America will not elect a black president in my lifetime.

Biden, Hillary, Bayh, Tim all are best !!!!!. Go Democrats !!!!

This is great news! I'm still hoping it's Biden, as it will seal the deal for McCain.

Obama is dumber than I thought if he picks this guy. Biden was getting what, 3% support during the primaries? Not to mention poll after poll after poll is still showing more than 25% of Clinton supporter's will vote for McCain and another 30% of the Clinton supporter's are still saying they are undecided. Also, conservatives (especially radio) will have a field day with this… I can't wait to see the Democrats cry. Yes, once again the Democratic party shot themselves in the foot again. Hillary was 'the one' but they decided to 'select' the black guy. I guess it's all about political correctness with the liberal left side of the Democratic party and not who can truly lead. When Obama loses in November, I'm sure all the bleeding heart libs will accuse the rest of us as being racist too. I guess the 'racists' could say the same thing about the Obama people being sexist.

Was for Hillary, now for McCain.

RJ: How is the obsession and the stalking of the Biden's house Obama's faulty??? The media is doing the hyping as usual and if you don't like it, turn the tv off!!

Probably more theater just to add to this ridiculous spectacle

Biden is the worst possible choice. I can already see the numerous articles and pundits discussing his plagerism. Obama cannot win without Clinton. It is that simple. Obama seems to be out of touch. He makes great speeches but has no substance. If McCain gets elected the final coffin will be hammered into this once great country.

Oh boo hoo hoo you poor disgruntled Clinton supporters are just soooo hurt that your 'Woman' didn't get picked that you are willing to cut off your childish noses in spite of your spiteful faces. Go ahead and vote for McCain or stay home in November…your kind of attitudes will only bring this country down for four more years anyway.

I think he should choose Nader.

Hey RJ, who in the heck actually still uses AOL?!? Does a subscription now come with a year's supply of prune juice?

its probably Biden, but you have to feel sorry for those poor reports standing there all day waiting. CNN is really about to have a O over this though, I'm glad it will this weekend while I'm the beach, who cares.

Since the moderators don't take kindly to comparing CNN to the paparazzi I guess I'll just say that their coverage is disappointing.

Obama is dumber than his politics. He could have won the nomination and most likely the Presidency pretty handily. But, Biden will be the albatross hanging on his neck as he goes down.

The DNC Convention will be the ice-berg to the USS Obama. I guess his Obamaton's will also keep playing while the ship goes down, I can only hope that they know "Same as it ever was".

It's amazing how Democrats always seem to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. How stupid can they be. Biden stupid I guess.

you did read the story so it can't just be cnn that's interested.

I officially have no respect for this guy. He could have said on Monday, "I know who it is, but I am not going to announce it until Saturday." That way members of the media, now stuck hanging around and waiting, unable to move, could spend these evenings with their families.

But this is not a person who thinks of others. It is quite literally all about him. Wow. Good job, Democrats.

Obama is using Biden as a decoy. Obama/ Hillary 08.

Sorry folks we don't care!!! Obama just won't do!! Democrats had their big chance two years ago!! All they did was give Bush a open Check Book!!! They are the blame for the War!!!! Don't try to send a slug and a Tug like Obama and cry to eveyone his can change!! The only change Obama can do is get out of the Rezko money game!!! Obama should be in jail too!!! Were all voting for McCain !!! Thank-God for McCain!!!

its biden.

If its Biden…..Bye Bye Obama! LOL

should have picked clinton to have a chance

I am not voting for Obama.. No way.. Clinton was the best choice..

Im a republican and i will be voting for Obama the time. Hes clearly the better candidate.

OBAMA BIDEN 2008

It's gone be Hillary. Not that I like her so much but I think that he has no other choice if he is gone win. Saw her tonight with a new hair cut and a new suit and a new smile. Maybe part of the change.

Okay. Stalkers.

mmmmm, NO! If he picks Biden, Obama is going to lose and he won't be getting my vote. We need someone who can inspire and he is NOT it !

Yes! John McCain guaranteed to win!

Mark my words Democrats, you have made a huuuuuge mistake!

Thank you! NO MORE TAXES!!! yeaaaa!

Breaking News… This just in McCain, mad about all the media coverage on Obama's VP text message campaign is getting, just announced that to demonstrate McCain's experience they will announce the Republican VP by Morse Code.

"A man who puts away his wife and marries another woman (especially a rich woman) commits adultery! Guess who fits this picture?

How can an American ever, with a bone of christian feel in his or her bone, vote for McCain?

If Bill is unfit to return to the White House, so is McCain!!

God bless us all!!!!!

I still think Obama should do a 3 am phone call to make his announcement, that would be the icing on the cake!

ONE CAN NEVER TRUST OBAMANIAN WORDS – Let us all Hillary supporters – stand out — out— of Obama's camp. Vote wisely – vote McCain.
If we cannot trust his words now … when will we?

I like Biden… if he is the one. Let's unit guys. No need for name calling and stupid talk. Eneogh is eneogh!

Looks like it's Biden. That's awesome!–Biden would be an amazing choice.

Anybody excited about this had a chance to vote for Biden when he was running. For a guy running to change Washington he has totally surrounded himself with the very people he came in talking about.
This guy is the ultimate phony.

Wait for the text guys.

HRC will be the people's champ but from the Senate. Between Pres. Obama and her they'll start this country back on the right track.

Thank God its not clinton. She would Vince Foster his butt if he won, so she could get the presidency.

Biden may be a nice guy. He doesn't do diddly squat for me as a VP candidate. I am SO sick of hearing Obama, Obama, Obama.

Call me bitter if you want, but I just can't support this guy no matter who he picks for VP. He's nice looking, seems personable, also seems way too full of himself, and ultimately reminds me of George W. Bush— absolutely NO substance.

Ralph Nader is starting to look better every day— and I never thought I'd ever say that!

Thanks, CNN, but why in the name of God you have not yet reported how fackcheck.org has debunked(again!) the McCain Camp's smear attack ad on Obama's house and his relationship with Tony Rezko? Seriously, you should be doing a good service to all of us, your readers, if you keep things clean and you go after the truth. You should be more balanced when reporting news.
[Thanks again, CNN!]

joe biden,,,,,,barrack obama…….. the far left liberals…….BALANCED BUDGET…….I THINK NOT…….CHANGE IS WHAT IS LEFT IN YOUR POCKET……after they're through with you……..

Or, maybe they're just having dinner?

I don't know. Seems about the time…

I had originally supported Biden for president, but quickly became enamored with Obama. The two together, while not exactly the Obama/Gore ticket I dreamed of, is as good as it gets.

Finally….

So Obama, who is it?

-_-

sooooo excited!!!!!!!!!!!!

ITS NOT

ITS DON KING OR FLAVOR FLAV

Choosing Biden is handing the White House to John McCain in a gift wrapped box.

Not picking Hillary is political suicide.

I'M not media or CNN, and I've been watching my email all day, too. I do hope it's Biden — but will be happy to find out whoever it is!

Ooooooohhh! So exciting! Oh yeah, tough luck HRC! Biden plagerized his way up – loser.

WHY WONT CNN POST MY COMMENT?

NO TO BIDEN!!!

HILLARY FOR VP

My 67 year old husband & I just love our CNN family_

We would love to have Barack add to his V.P. Buzz,
by making a blackberry announcement/ call at 3:00 A.M.

OH WHAT FUN!

If this is the pick… I will be very excited. Biden can kick this into gear and galvanize America's frustration with what is wrong with our current state.

Independent rooting for Obama/Biden

Oh who cares. Joe Biden is old school Washington. So much for "change". Isnt he as old as McCain? Did Biden even win ANY primary or caucus? oy vay….

isnt it a little creepy to be able to get on the internet and see the front of someones house?

I hope this is "THE 2nd ONE" if so now we will have 2 this is "THE
ONES "
Way to go Obama we love you and know YOU are "THE ONE"

Yes We Can all the way to the Oval Office

….CNN, please

Thank gosh it was not Hillary…….ABC….Anybody BUT Clinton

Biden is nowhere as good as Clinton.

Would be a shame!

This is purely ridiculous. America should have better things to do than paying attention to an announcement that that amounts to nothing but red tape. Obama is unelectable.

Biden?!!!!!!! Yep–Obama admits he doesn't know squat about foreign affairs.

CORRECTION: "without Hillary Clinton as VP"

say it's so, Joe!!

Obama/Biden 08

Obama revealed: Didn't even consider Hillary Clinton, although she was on "anybody's short list" — he's a liar and a egotistical — AND NOW EVEN CARELESS — politician.

He could have at least appeased us Clintonites with making us think he actually meant what he said whenever he praises her …he needs her … he needs us….and he just lost me ….forever!

I think the media has gone entirely too far with the whole Vice- President selection process.

While I believe it is very important to know who the person will be, it is pathetic that people are outside Joe Biden's house watching what his wife and kids are doing inside.

Please put your people on a leash, they certainly need to be.

If he doesn't go with Clinton (which he won't) the smartest choice is Kain.

I'm surprised Obama picked Biden. With that big ego of his, I never expected Barack to pick someone far more intelligent than himself. It takes a lot of guts, actually…

Biden/Obama would have been a much stronger ticket, though.

I have noticed that CNN has a fascination with Hillary Clinton that no other news source has. CNN WHY??

CNN, The Most Trusted Name In Paparazzi.

CNN…that's called STALKING STALKING…if it was any regular person doing it…we'd surely get arrested…stop the little girl gossip stuff…

You people are ridiculous! Now you are hiding out in peoples bushes to see if there are any "activity" outside their house? Who cares?! When he tells us he tells, I don't give a rats behind who he picks. He is going to lose anyway.

Obama / Biden '08. Great team.

Biden has been in Washington longer than McCain and he voted for the war. He represents everything Obama is against.

Bye Bye Obama and Biden

Great News if it is Joe, he will make a great VP.

Great if it's Biden now this democrat can work hard to get McCain elected. Clinton 08 or McCain 08.

C'mon, Joe- WE NEED A TOUGH GUY TO GET THIS DONE!!!!

Maybe they are going to Applebees.

I think we should all write in Al Gore's name for president.

omg omg omg omg omg omg…

Come on CNN, is the news a little slow tonight? Stay tuned!

I really don't care. Does not matter, still don't like him

Just what I would suspect for someone who thinks he is a rock star. Draw things out so your face would be on TV all day. Keep everyone running after you.

Boy, what an attitude he had when reporters were asking him his choice. So reminded me of Bush. Same attitude.

I am not a Sen. Clinton crybaby, Just someone who is not a follower and wants experience.

If Obama choose's anyone other than Hillary Clinton, he has lost eight votes in this family and more. We will vote democratic for the Senate and Congress but never for Obama and Biden or any other beside's Clinton who earned it. Believe me, we will campaign for MCcain. This proves Obama's judgement is poor. He ought to know he will never win with Hillary as his VP.

wow and for his next trick sen. obama will be going to use the bathroom. stay tuned, stay breathless, cnn.

CNN, this is stupid. You guys are getting as bad as the paparrazzi stalking "Brangelina".

Can you say Jerry Springer episode? The media is having Obagasm

HILLARY FOR VP!!! OR NO PARTY UNITY!

HILLARY FOR VP!! NO TO OBAMA BIN BIDEN

I knew it.

Do you smell what BHO is cooking!!!!!!!!!!!!!

BHO/JB 08 baby

Obama has good judgment. He will make the right choice.

he's to smug for my taste. with him they both come off as elitist, talking down to the average people

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

his daughter? wife? son?

Sounds like dinner time.

Poor Hillary….its just not fair.

OBAMA/BIDEN ALL THE WAY TO THE WHITE HOUSE.

Zzzz get to it already.

yawn. perhaps obama's campaign is hyping the pick so much because if it's anyone BUT clinton it's completely boring. seems that the only people interested in this biting off their fingernails is CNN.

I'm excited!!!

I can't wait i am so excited.
Obma/Biden 08

OK, I think I'll take a nap now. Obama's childish VP antics are nauseating and wearing me out!

McCain for president — a grown-up ready to do a grown-up job!

The AOl Straw Poll – REAL people voting REALTIME (without “sampling errors”): August 18-25: 117,545 total votes cast: McCain 68%, Obama 32%.

Nighty-night, Obama Kool-Aid drinkers!

STOP
He will tell us when he is ready!
You are being redundant CNN~ You look stupid CNN
Print this????

WHOOOOOOO HOOOO!!!!
