Virginia governor Tim Kaine has told close associates that he has had "very serious" conversations with Sen. Barack Obama about joining the Democratic ticket and has provided documents to the campaign as it combs through his background, according to several sources close to Kaine.Anytime a report like this is attributed to "sources" during the veepstakes, it's very likely to be a trial balloon being floated by the nominee's campaign.
Suffice it to say I am as decidedly unthrilled as I am (unfortunately) totally unsurprised that the Obama campaign is even considering putting a gay-baiting DINO war hawk whose personal "views on abortion are roughly in line with those of George W. Bush" on the ticket.
I started this campaign season looking at the Democratic field and thinking I couldn't possibly be disappointed. LOL.
Good times.
