Good for him for allowing us to enjoy this night. I agree with Maria, this is historic, and we should all be celebrating how far this country has come, regardless of who you plan to vote for.
You may not have the Sex-Appeal!~ John.. But you can Appeal to the Women, for the Next Presedent for Real!!!
I guess not, with Obama/Biden, he doesn't know who to choose.
Yeah McCain. It won't work. We don't care. You and George Bush are the same. If you were different your ads would have shown the difference, but instead all you do is attabk Obama, Show how your term will be different from George Bush and stop the dirty politics of old. And by the way Obama made his VP pick into a reality show. Please don't imitate him?
Obiden 08
You Obama supporters have to get over your nastiness. Its like a sickness with you people. Did you all learn this from Michelle.
Not tonight. Nothing exciting was happening but a old Motown Show in Denver.
I may be fighting my hardest on my university campus to defeat McCain, but today, I say God bless him and I offer my sincere thanks for his congratulatory ad and his decision not to announce his VP pick. Thank you Senator McCain and I look forward to a spirited campaign.
Obama/Biden '08
Who cares ? This man does not have a Chance anyway. Not one original idea. His "My friends" that he starts every sentence with is from Ronald Regan. The "Celebrity" Ronald Regan. Same OLD politics of the PAST. Which he represents SO WELL ! He will take his place in History as the man who ran for the Presidency (How many times?). Barak Obama will take his place in History as the Next President of The United States Of America.
If you cheat on your wife who waited for you while you were in the Hanoi Hilton does that make you a gentleman? If you leave here because she was in a horrible accident and doesn't look the same physically does that make you a gentleman? If you marry a woman with whom you are having an adulterous affair with does that make you a gentleman? Where does the famous "Republican Values" come into play here? Just curious.
I laugh when people say Obama-Biden 2012/16 What will you guys do when that ticket lose?
Please, pick Sarah Palin McCain 08!
McCain should be McGone
The only really intelligent man that has thrown his hat in for president is Romney. Those of you that have been doing your own "vetting" would shocked at this guy's background in economics and administrative genius.....
To Hillary Supporters:
I was a Hillary supporter (and still love the woman to death). But now's the time to switch gears and vote Obama. I hate hearing staunch Clinton supporters ranting about how they won't vote or will even vote for McCain.
Just remember: If you vote for McCain-you will be voting AGAINST the very policies that Hillary supports. That means you only supported Hillary because of her person, which is no reason at all to support someone.
Also: A VOTE FOR MCCAIN IS A VOTE AGAINST WOMEN.
What is this, the millionth post on here about George Bush the third announcing his VP selecton on Friday?
They're still gonna lose, so he could wait till the second Tuesday of November and it wouldn't mean jack
Ho no , not again he forget allready who he picks
At least McCain knows how many states are in the country he is trying to represent (congratulations to Obama who claimed to have been to 57 states with a few more to go, you've found the lost states!) and McCain is not afraid to say he stands by America unlike Obama who refuses to put his hand on his heart during the national anthem because he doesn't want to take sides in international affairs and possibly offend other nations! Political views aside I can't vote for someone who says he doesn't want to take sides with America, the country he is trying to lead!!!
Whoever his VP willbe , they can't defeat Obama

The first decent thing I've heard from McCain this campaign.
Who care,s who McShame pick,s Obama rocked it out tonight and him & Biden will knock there sock,s off.
this is so high school.
Gee who could care about his choice for vp /he was going back and forth he knew /he never knew tryis to get focus off Obama but the funny part was/ and is who cares and who was watching McWar ?
This VP person must just want to see their name on vp list as McWar isn't going anywhere unless its back to Arizona or to one of his "13" houses and "13" tables .
Mark my word /I never said read my lips I recall hearing that Republican lie.
Yeah, cause to reveal he or she tonight would by like urinating in the wind. Nothing McCain says tonight can overshadow what the DNC just did on national television.
