Sweet: Meet Your Dem Ticket In Springfield
Still unknown when exactly Barack Obama first leaks word of his veep selection, but the Chicago Sun-Times' Sweet is reporting that the Dem pair will appear together Saturday in Springfield, IL, where Obama launched his campaign in February 2007.
Sweet: "State of Illinois authorities have beens asked permission by Obama folks to reserve the historic spot at noon. This does not mean that this is the time and place where Obama announces his running mate; that could happen any time from Wednesday morning on. Obama's time frame is shrinking, so the announcement is coming soon. The new vice presidential contender will jump on the road with Obama to showcase the new partnership. Springfield is a leg on the Obama roots tour."
