Forget the Text Message

By now you would have heard who Obama’s VP nominee will be, and CNN confirmed from “Democratic Party sources” that it will be Sen. Biden. This news was leaked far before any text message so I hope you all are on unlimited text messaging to spare you the cost of what is now a spam text message. If Obama really wanted to maintain the suspense, he should have made his choice a la The Bachelor, i.e., invite Biden and Bayh to a rose garden with one rose in his hand, and tell Bayh that he enjoyed their time together especially the overnight and that he is sure that “Bayh will make someone an excellent VP-mate one day.” Then he could call Biden and say “you complete me – let us go then you and I” and hand him the rose.
