I have a diffrent take

Submitted August 21, 2008 - 3:58 pm by Karl (not verified)

A biased one beacuse I really, really want it to be Sebelius but here's my take.

Springfield Saturday, Eau Claire, Wisconsin Sunday, the Quad Cities
area in Iowa Monday, Kansas City, Missouri Tuesday and Billings,
Montana Wednesday.

Is it just me or does that mean it is not going to be Bayh?

That's a map of the trip. If your going to pick Bayh wouldn't you stop in Indiana or at least somewhere close to Indiana?

So that leaves us with Kaine and Biden who are not remotely in the area (which could make them seem likely and pick the pick more of a surprise) or Sebelius.

Draw a line from the start to the finish and it runs through Kansas, the closest stop to a VP's home is Kansas (Kansas City), it's being billed as focusing on economic issues and is in places where people care about economic issues, Sebelius is currently slotted to speak on economic issues and that's her best area. Sebelius has been campaigning in similar areas for Obama recently, she was in Michigan to kick off women for Obama (women outreach tryout?) and is in Iowa today hitting McCain on houses (attack dog tryout?).

I'm probably way over reading this. But I think it might be Sebelius. And I'm really, really hoping that. So right now I predict Sebelius will get the call for being VP on Friday with Kaine and Biden being the next most likely.
