There's no way the Obama Campaign would want to risk pushing that gaffe off the television by making its VP announcement.

That is one heck of a park. It was cold and we left our seats around the 4th inning, but just had a lovely time walking around, seeing the place. With a park like that you don't need to win to get people to buy a ticket. This coming from a Cub fan!

Maybe I'm just taking a little nap, like my older lover John McCain used to do back when we did it in the Senate Cloakroom when I visited him.

I know we were cheating on his wives, but it was fun!
