Obama In Some D.C. Building For Three Hours, VP Choice Imminent

On Monday, Barack Obama spent three hours in the offices of Covington and Burling, the workplace of one of the people on his vice presidential selection committee. Also, Caroline Kennedy was in town yesterday, as were David Plouffe and David Axelrod and Robert Gibbs and OH GOD TIM KAINE, THE GUY WHO DELIVERED THAT WRETCHED STATE OF THE UNION REBUTTAL A FEW YEARS BACK, WILL BE OUR VICE PRESIDENT BOOOOOOOOOOO.

Combine the presence of numerous people in the same place at the same time with a story so obvious that even theNew York Timeshad to write about it ( Hillary will not be veep, blah blah blah) and you have a recipe for a big announcement. Expect Barack Obama to hold a press conference tomorrow on Mount Rushmore with Maggie Gyllenhaal and Scarlett Johansson performing a live sex show as Obama announces his exciting vice presidential pick by pointing to the words written on a flaming zeppelin streaking across the sky, while somewhere in Ohio John McCain drops another jar of applesauce.
