Some guy wrote in to let us know that ObamaBayh08.com redirects to BARACK OBAMA’S VERY OWN WEB SITE so obviously Evan Bayh, the senator from Indiana, has gotten the nod. We thought that Barack Obama, a rumored smart guy or whatever, probably planned ahead and bought up all the domains of Obama(Potential Vice Presidential Stooge The Press Is Speculating About This Week)08.com, but we thought wrong. ObamaClinton08.com turns up nothing, ditto ObamaEdwards08.com, ObamaWebb08.com actually belongs to somebody, and ObamaNapolitano08.com took too long to type, so we gave up. Meet your new vice president, America! He is the most boring man alive.
If this happens it’s no different then Kerry choosing Edwards in 04. We all know indiana is going to the Republicans. The only true choice for Obama and America is Ron Paul and his Revolution! Obama-Paul08 bitches!
Right, so my real choice is actually General Wesley Clark. Come on the guy has a resume the length of Obama’s coal sausuage.
Bayhe (pronounced “bye”) had supported Hillary Clinton, so even more than the Indiana vote, he’s got the crazy white female vote
Eh, it’s not happening:

It’s more likely he’d pick a female VP. So try ObamaJohansson08.com for sure.
Bill Richardson, bitches!
But only if he keeps the beard…
Obama/Beard 08?

This would be fantastic if he did. Bayh is just about the perfect pick for Veep.
Centrist white guy, and the Bayh name is legendary in Indiana - he will push McCain to spend money in a BIG state that should have been safe for him.
ObamaNapolitano08.com turns up a picture of this hot white chick:

Obama-HotWhiteChick 08!!! Now that’s change I can get behind.
pondscum: The White House needs more facial hair!! Maybe Barry can grow a soul patch…
How ’bout Glenda the Good Witch of the East?
Maybe this is just a website for the Obama Bay Ho?
gonzo: Damn, your skillz are more leet than mine, apparently.
bago: ObamaBeard08! And he still picks a lady!
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beard_%28female_companion%29
As far as I can tell, the only qualification for VP in the Dem Party is good looking hair. Evan, though, looks like a poor man’s version of John Edwards.
Change! it’s not.
I think Kathleeen Sebelius is his likely pick, but obamasebelius08.com is just parked at GoDaddy.
Geez, is this guy old enough to buy booze? He and Barry together are barely as old as McCain is on his lonesome.
Hey, look him over
Give him a thought
You call him ‘Bayh’
But we call him ‘Bought’
4 years of Mr. Pleats? O.K.
You know, out in the bitter midwest, senator-people, or even sometimes governor-people are kinda fun in person at, let’s say, a mixer at somebody’s house.
Evan Bayh, not so much….
Dave J.: Strangely enough, the owner of obamasebelius08.com also owns bacheloretteclubs.com.
Oh, look, a white Democrat who works as hard at being as non-threatening to wealthy white people as Obama does. Only without his charisma, so he’s non-threatening to Obama as well. Bayh will follow in the footsteps of other lobotomized VPs like Gore and fellow hoosier Quale.
WaldoJeffersHead: I think I just came…
AxmxZ: He’s 5 years older than Obama.
I’m trying to find a single potential VP who would be younger than Obama, and there really aren’t any. Goddamn, he’s young.
jagorev: Unless he picks up Jindal. (Then laughs and throws him back.)
Not gonna happen. Obama’s not gonna pick this “Bay” guy, because if you read the proposed slogan - ObamaBayh08 - “Bay” admits to being a “ho.” And not even a good ho, because he’s only ho #8. If Hopey wants a ho, he ain’t gonna/gotta “settle” for anyone but the elitist #1 ho.
But I don’t think Hopey’s gonna swing toward a ho in any case. He remembers too well what happened to Elvis Schvitzer.
I’d hit it.
Wesley Clark! Wesley Clark! Wesley Clarke!
Robert Mugabe for VP! He’ll make Barack look whiter, and he knows how to “persuade” the electorate (previously, the realm of the GOP, here in the U.S.).
Kingbee: Still not as evil as Cheney, though.
Prodigalson1982: I am so down with Gen. Clark
I know he’s short - but he’s hawt … like in a Clooney sort of way
Kingbee: Mugabe’s soul patch is way too Hitlerian, though.
jagorev: Maddox Joile-Pitt?
“He is the most boring man alive”.
Then it’s a perfect fit. They will need a way to cleanse the palate before a big dose of Barry at the campaign rallies.
Hi everybody. Indian’s Governor is Republican. So Evan Bayh, sadly, cannot be chosen by the Chosen. Which is sad because it would have been the hottest ticket ever and would drive myriad sex-starved Adjective Moms to the polls with fantasies of pols poles. If you read me.
Rodney Badger: Incredible!
i’m just glad it’s tipster ‘john’ and not that ‘bob’ guy again.
gjdodger:
This is actually a reverse of an old joke about Indiana senators: Bayh and bought — it’s a leftover from Birch Bayh, who was anomalously honest, decent and bright; a mistake Indiana has not made again, though there are rumors Lugar has brains and a conscience. And Lugar is, in fact, likelier than Bayh as the veep. But why should it be either? Reasons for Bayh:
–as a successful governor, he has administrative experience and credibility, just in case Obama wants to have a veep who does stuff.
–as the most wooden public speaker in recent-day national politics (he makes Al Gore look like Pee Wee Herman) he won’t show up the head of the ticket, and he scores with those people who think inept speaking equals sincerity.
Problem is, Richardson has those pluses and also has a cool beard.
Hopey has simply got to go with someone with military experience: Hilbot and the Army of Bitters.
Bayh does have a profile on millionarematchmakers.com. Such a sexy beast.
Rodney Badger: Aren’t the Dems calculating on picking up a few Senate seats too? They can afford to take a risk when the odds are in their favor. Though if your weakness is that you’re inexperienced, I don’t know how Bayh really helps with that. Richardson or Sebelius would be good. Too bad Lara Logan’s not a citizen — that would be awesome.
artbot2000: If you want to scare the shit out of yourself, watch “The War Room.” There’s this bit toward the end where Gore is giving a speech and it’s actually INTERESTING.
Sara K. Smith: He actually has moments of humanity and amiability. I saw some lecture of his on YouTube (at TED, maybe?) where he was actually entertaining and funny for eight minutes. (I’d provide the link at this point if my soundcard wasn’t dead — sorry). But I hear they’ll be fixing that in the next release.
SayItWithWookies: are you referring to Bayh or Ken Layne?
American Dreamer: Oh I’m so thrilled you’re back. The internets aren’t annoying enough without you.
SayItWithWookies: wild horses couldn’t keep me away from you big boy.
Well, that never would’ve happened, except you know how rare a Tuesday night takedown is. But let’s face it — we come from different worlds. I’m a socialist atheist vegetarian living in the deep south, and you’re a willowy tranny pundit with a passion for rubbing sandpaper on her clit and acting out Dennis Kucinich rape fantasies (for those wondering about giving or getting — both.) I love you Ann, but it’s never going to be more than one crazy night, one cannibal luau, one marathon session of tissue-violating, ’shroom-fueled unprotected old-fashioned Texas hatefucking and and two mildly beat-up Cuban cigars. Sorry.
SIw/W
American Dreamer: Hello “Sara K. Smith.”
SayItWithWookies: Oh — that was Re: American Dreamer (in case there was some confusion about that).
And it wasn’t *and and* — just one and.
And it was Texas-style hatefucking, not “Texas hatefucking.” The bathroom of the Applebee’s in Akron, Ohio isn’t anywhere near Texas.
And as far as “’shroom-fueled” goes, I think there was some ayahuasca in there too, but my recollection is a bit fuzzy.
Okay, that concludes the errata for the previous message. We now return you to your previously scheduled program, already in progress.
SayItWithWookies: Regularly scheduled program, not previously scheduled. It’s awfully quiet here tonight. Was there some party I wasn’t invited to? Crap.
(HAL voice): I’m frightened Dave.
You two (three?) need to get a room.
The rest of us are trying to have a serious conversation here.
Cool2Snog: Serious conversation? Here? Serious business, yes, but “Lighten Up, Frnaces” on discussing it! That’s the charm of Wonkette, starting with Wonkette herself!
Everyone knows that Obama is going to choose Robert Byrd as his running mate! Come on, guys, it’s all Byrd these days!
SayItWithWookies: That just made me want to have sex with you. I don’t think that’s in the normal range of the Kinsey scale.
Actually, ObamaBayh08.com goes directly to yahoo.com. Obama’s gonna pick Hillary. He’d be a fool not to.
Smackdown: Awww, thanks — you make my pervy heart smile.
Did I miss something? When I check that link it redirects me to yahoo.com…
Hey, you stopped short of the complete address. Jus for kicks,
go to and see what adding the
20 to 08 takes you to.
The fix is in, welcome Wesley!!!

Sorry, the link was dropped out because of an html error on my part,
much like the typo missing “t” on the word “Just”.
See where that re-direct takes you.
Trying it again:

Boring works for democrat vp’s. It later helps you lose your own run for president
as the media destroys you in favor of a stupid gop puppet who masquerades as
a moderate.
How about we get Birch Bayh, Evan’s dad. Yeah I know Birch is 10 years older than McSame, but he’s full of piss and vinegar as they say. And he’s probably close to Feingold progrssive.
