Obama is between a rock and a hard place.

By announcing too early he leaves Kaine open to be bloodied.

By announcing too late he’s killing any possible buzz or bump with supporters.

Voters are focused on who he’s going to pick for VP.. instead of any of his “policies”

This is an eyebrow-raising development.

The Eyebrow as VP. We here in the Commonwealth have our work cut out for us. Everyone must engage.

I still want Obama to lose, but if running for Vice-President would get Kaine off our necks till November, that’d be a Good Thing. I wish I thought there was a chance of shaming him into resigning.

He won’t resign, but the House GOP leadership has already started the “what about Virginia’s budget crisis” song.

Kaine was my prediction a while back.

I hope I was wrong. Kaine’s media image (he just loves God don’t you know) is a good fit for Berry.

Also, Kaine is refusing to issue agency budget cuts for the projected $1B projected budget shortfall until AFTER the elections. Why would he issue such ‘draconian’ cuts, if he’s going to be on the ticket? That would just give ammunition to the R’s.

just musing....

Ever since Kaine has been governor he has done absolutely zero except try to raise taxes on every road in the State.

The man is an absolute to the left liberal as far as he can be.

Obama and Kaine will make a perfect match, but not in the White House.

Between the two of them, they have as much political experience as Pat Paulsen

Not only that, Kaine is a Catholic and takes order directly from that Pope feller in Rome.

No, not Georgia. Rome Europe.

Kaine was a Christian missionary in his former life
