July 6, 2004 -- EXCLUSIVE
John Kerry has chosen Rep. Richard Gephardt, the veteran congressman from Missouri, to be his running mate, The Post has learned.
Gephardt, 63, a 28-year veteran of the House of Representatives, could be named by the presumptive Democratic nominee as the party's vice-presidential candidate as soon as today.
The Massachusetts senator was set to announce the winner of the veep-stakes at a rally this morning in Pittsburgh, according to several reports last night.
With the July 26 Democratic convention in Boston looming, Kerry is looking for some advantage in the polls, and is hoping his choice of running mate will be the answer.

Remember how John John Kennedy was believed to be in the running for the US Senate from NY during the 2000 cycle? That would have put a big dent in Hillary's plans. So next thing we know, John John goes bye bye, and Hillary then promptly announces...
we'll have two dicks running for vice-president
His law license is suspended. That will never happen, no way, no how.
Secretary of Defense Hillary Rodham Clinton
SecDef Wesley Clark and Chief Justice Hillary.
Oops. Missed the "vice" part. Well, the sentiment's correct.
So they are...thanks for the link. hehehehehehehehehehehe
Pandering to the gay vote.
It definitely could happen. I would recommend that you never underestimate how low the scumbags can go. Look what they did to Torricelli when they saw he was losing - - they ousted him from his candidacy for reelection and threw up a corpse to take his place. The corpse won. Okay, it was only New Jersey, but if the Democrats could get away with it in that toilet, they may just try it on a national basis if they figure they got nothing to lose.
Edwards still up big on Tradesports.com
Could this be a ruse to embarass Murdoch?
Good god.
Yeah that's what we thought here until the "Torricelli option" had its premier showing.
Most definitely.

And YOU obviously enjoy wetting your pants in fear of your own making.
Repeat after me......HILLARY IS NOLT GOING TO BE KERRY'S V.P.,HILLARY IS NOT GOING TO BE KERRY'S V.P.
And when you're done doing that a trillion times,tell yourself that no,she isn't going top run for president either.
Could be, I'm just relaying the story, I have no information to prove or disprove anything therein.
I don't know which to believe. It's not inconceivable Kerry had his minions paint the plane with Edwards' name at 10PM and Gephardt's at 2AM, or that folks on an Internet message board are simply lying.
It's also not inconceivable that the New York Post is wrong. But they are really sticking their necks out on this. Front page. Not Gephardt MAY be Kerry's choice --- KERRY'S CHOICE - Dem picks Gephardt as VP candidate. This will be on all the local newsstands this morning. If this is wrong, the New York Post will look like fools.
