CNN: Obama Calling Unselected VP Contenders
by John Little on 22/08/2008
Thanks, but no thanks:
Sen. Barack Obama called some people on his shortlist for the vice presidential slot Thursday night to tell them he had not selected them as a running mate, a highly placed Democratic Party source said.
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.
NBC cameraman Jim Long is camped outside of Joe Biden’s house and posting updates on Twitter. Biden seems to be a favorite but could it still be Hillary? I think so. You know what they say about keeping your friends close and your enemies closer.
