Obama says he's decided on a running mate
By NEDRA PICKLER,
Associated Press Writer
CHICAGO - Barack Obama says he's decided on a running mate, but he won't say who. The Democratic presidential candidate told USA Today on Thursday that he went with someone who is independent and would challenge him in the White House. He also said he wanted someone who is prepared to be president and would help him strengthen the economy.
He wouldn't say whether he's informed his pick yet. He says he won't reveal anything else about the decision until he announces it.
Obama is planning to do so in a text message to supporters sometime before Saturday afternoon, when he's scheduled to appear with his pick in Illinois.
Asked by an Associated Press reporter when the text would be sent, Obama just grinned and said, "Wouldn't you like to know?"

I'll bet she knows

HILLARY RODHAM CLINTON 4 V-POTUS!!!
Who's betting? Who's gambling?
or
POTUS with a fight.
Either way, we need Clinton to win.
- Pro choice
- Pro gun control
- Pro gay rights
- Anti-death penalty
- He's made New York one of the cleanest cities in the world and has pressed others to follow in his footsteps to stop global warming
- He took a large deficit and turned it into a large surplus while growing the economy
Those are all very good things from a potential VP. He doesn't offer very much on the foreign policy front, but the economy has taken the foreground in this election and he is a superstar in that arena.
