Obama Campaigns With Potential Running Mates Bayh, Nunn
(CBS)
(CHICAGO) Barack Obama hits the campaign trail today with possible vice presidential contenders, Sen. Evan Bayh, D-Ind., and former Sen. Sam Nunn, D-Ga. Obama has vowed not to discuss potential VP choices or the vetting process with the press, but recently he has been seen whizzing in and out of the office of his VP vetter, Eric Holder. He was also recently accompanied to New York by Caroline Kennedy, another member of his VP search committee.
Obama, Bayh, and Nunn will speak at a campaign event at Purdue University in Indiana this afternoon, where they will discuss modern day national security threats, which include bioterrorism and cyber security.
Also on the trail today is Davis Guggenheim, the Academy Award winning director of Al Gore's documentary, “An Inconvenient Truth.” Guggenheim, accompanied by his camera crew, will be traveling to Indiana on Obama’s press plane. Guggenheim is working on an Obama documentary for the convention.
Best-selling author Mitch Albom on his first nonfiction work since "Tuesdays with Morrie."
Thus, Obama admitted that he accomplished little but that he was able to cover that up with fancy talk about change.
Contrary to Obama%u2019s portrayal of himself as a unifier, on every bipartisan effort in the Senate to forge compromises on tough issues, Obama has been missing in action.
In sum, it would be difficult to imagine a more mediocre record. Most candidates for dog catcher have contributed more to society. Yet with the help of adoring reporters, Obama has managed to parlay extraordinary speaking and political skills into a presidential campaign built on sand.
The idea that America might entrust its security and future to someone who has never demonstrated an ability to get anything of significance done is scary.
Look for John McCain to begin exploiting this vulnerability after Labor Day
BUT IT WOULD BE NICE IF MCCAIN CHOSE THE MONTANA LEGISLATOR WALTER MCNUTT AS HIS VP: "MCCAIN...MCNUTT" ....NOW THAT''S A BUMPER STICKER EVEN DEMOCRATS WOULD PUT ON THEIR CAR!....ON THE SERIOUS SIDE....LET''S PUT OBAMA TO WORK FOR AMERICA!!!!
