The NYT newsroom was buzzing late Monday afternoon after Obama-beat reporter Jeff Zeleny learned how the Dem hopeful has now finalized his choice for a running-mate.I bet they string this out for a couple of days to maximize the media. Plus, Hurricane Fay will soon be the top story as it hits Florida and the Dems don't want to compete with that.
Obama has set an elaborate roll-out to announce his decision that will begin with an early morning e-mail to supporters, perhaps as early as Tuesday, Zeleny and Adam Nagourney have been told.
A top source close to Caroline Kennedy tells DRUDGE -- the pick is more likely to come early Wednesday morning.
Is it Nunn? Is it Kaine? Is Hillary there? What about Kerry? Bayh? Biden?
Developing... all night [week?] long
My money's on Evan Bayh, though the "Obama-Bayh" bumper stickers will be problematic.
UPDATE: Looks like the Vice-Messiah announcement won't come until Thursday or Friday. The storm in Florida will probably dominate the news today and tomorrow.
