it's a name for goodness sake.

A running mate........

I just don't understand the "need" to know and how people are waiting with baited breath to get a name.

Since when, Andy is the VP choice "just a name"? This is a very important decision. I am glad Senator Obama has taken his time in making this decision. This person will be his right hand man/woman.

I think it is very innovative the way he is letting his supporters know first.

I totally agree that the VP candidate is a very important choice....couldn't agree more however; having said that; does it make anyones life any more complete to have the name sent via text seconds before CNN or MSNBC broadcasts it? Will it seriously change anyone's life by knowing seconds earlier? And OMG; what happens if you're in a meeting and miss the text? Are you no longer a supporter?

There are SOOO many more important issues going on in the world and in our nation.........i just think that it's a pretty minor point.....simply my opinion.

It is a way of obtaining more telephone numbers and emails so as to solicit aid and money in the future.

I have NEVER been solicited on my cell phone from the Obama campaign-- What I receive is notifications of when he is going to speak or debate. Great info!
