#3 There is acting like the nominee before it is official, then there is being a total ass and openly running the considerations while the race is not officially determined.

That said, there is talk about sebelius with good points - governor of Kansas ('red state' and bo's roots), woman, distinguished record, ambitious (will be running for us senate next chance) greensburg stage, honorary dissenting opinion last state of union address.

please please please pick sebelius.

#4 Fannie Mae. If you guys want a source of the mortgage crisis, that's it. Not banker greed, but government unaccountability and incompetence. Johnson's a good guy for getting some outside the Beltway perspective on who to have a heartbeat away from pushing the button on Iran.

#5 Thanks to our Federal Gummit, a lender saying "NO" to a loan applicant had become another form "discrimination" and a gateway to ligigation, fines, and penalties.

#9 Well, he could offer it to Hillary...in the interest of party unity, you understand. I heard that Bill is pushing hard for that. But I feel nauseous just thinking about it and he'd have to spend most of his time watching is back if he did.

#10 I also heard that WJC is lobbying hard for Hillary as VEEP. Some of the donks would still be pi$$ed. As McCcain said on SNL why not make it really exciting and not pick a candidate until after the convention.

#11 Rush's closer today was that Hillary had offered to drop out of the race this afternoon, if bHo would offer her the VP slot. She promised to decline. bHo didn't believe her so he pulled the offer.

Operation Kaos kontinues.
