(CNN) – Sen. Barack Obama called some people on his short-list for the vice presidential slot Thursday night to tell them he had not selected them as running mate, a highly placed Democratic party source told CNN.
The source did not say which people got the call.
Obama has told some other potential running mates over the last few weeks that he would not be choosing them.

If Obama picks Clinton he better hire an offical food taster, have a metal plate put in the back of his suites, chinstrap a helmit on with a mouth peice because she will stab him in the back, crown him with a club, or mess with his food.
Jo-Ann From NY.. Have you lost all your senses??? If he dosen't
choose Hillary, Obama will go down the drain.Look at the polls dear,
McCain is winning more everyday.
Why do pro-choice women always speak in terms that imply they speak for all women. Please note pro-choicers, there is a sizable percentage of U.S. women who are pro-life! Pro-life candidates are not a slap in the face to all women. In fact, a majority of people (men and women) are pro-life in this country. The democratic party is catching on and has a pro-life speaker at its convention this year. That at least is the opening of a dialogue – good for the democratic party!
Well Bigfoot is out of it, I saw the other day that he's dead now.
Anyone with half a brain would be relieved to to be excluded from Obama's "Yes We Can (Spread Socialism)" world tour.
Runners-up.
@Bubba: Mega-LOL
He's still an inexperience wimp and the short list of VP's appears to be too.
If its not Clinton he loses plain and simple. McCain has more important things on his mind like running our country then his houses. This gaffe is not going to fly and will only make Obama look stupid because he has no solution for national security problems, or anything for that matter.
BIDEN, HAGEL or HILLIARY is my guess !!!
Only two people were running that are true American Patriots,Ron Paul and Dennis Kucinich.The rest are Globalists,out to fill their pockets at the expense of the American People.
and who exactly are your sources energy?
I find that hard to believe b/c I can't see him trusting her at all.. It'd be a rockier relationship than JFK and LBJ and we know what happened during that presidency....
Oh PLEASE!
Who cares? All the drama, big media hype from the empty suit!
LOL! Nobody votes based on the VP slot. Oh, the suspense....I can hardly contain my excitement. Idiots to buy into this dribble.
WHO CARES ???. "Above my pay grade" Very smart. My family was for Obama. Not any more.4or 7 houses – this America. This not Africa. Why this go against McCain.
The whole reason he's hyping it up this much is because it's not going to be Hillary. That way the whole weekend will be spent by MSM slathering over who it is rather than who it isn't, before Days 1 & 2 of the convention, which are already all about the Clintons.
Strategically this inevitable but still a mistake when it comes to winning the election; Obama couldn't pick the Clintons because everybody knows 'three's a crowd'...not enough room in the White House for all those people and their egos too.
Because Hillary was the best chance to draw in the independent voters who will WIN this election, it is now merely academic going into the Fall.
In the end, by not picking Hillary, or her actually being the nomonee, John Mc____ (fill in blank with your favorite childish put-down here) will be our next President.
You're Welcome.
Maybe Rev. Wright , Ayers or that man that helped him buy his home for a bargain at the time the housing market was HOT.
Who cares?!! Let's face it, he's not in the "right" club to be elected.
To Linda: A woman's choice??? Since when do women walk around with two heart beats??? You poor woman are not only ignorant, but in desperate need of help. When is the last time you were invited to an embryo party???!
Let the General Begin. Dems Unite.
Runners-up, Ms. Yellin, not runner-ups.
If it isn't Hillary, America will vote for McCain.
Obama is nothing without Hillary.
Better be Hillary or this will be a very dark day and all the excitement will be gone.
Obama Has Already Made His Choice And It Was Not Hillary Clinton! She Got A Call At 3 Am This Morning!
He called Paris and i told him no thanks we had plans for the weekend. Call back next week and we would think about it.
Obama had better swallow his extreme arrogance and pick the only candidate that can be a game changer. Is that Joe Biden who has been in the senate since Obama was 11..no, Evan Byah, a nice guy but as boring as a log in a swamp...no, is it the unknow governor of kansas, what do you think, is it Tim Kaine or Virginia, you have to be known to be a game changer......there is only one person who can change the game for Obama and anyone with a brain knows who that is.
I would like it if was Hillary
