Thanks to a scoop obtained exclusively by this blog, I can definitively report that Louis Farrakhan will not be named tomorrow as Senator Obama's running mate.
Farrakhan has often been mentioned as a possibility. His status as a resident of Chicago was deemed useful because Obama has few ties to the Illinois area. Also, his leadership position in the Nation of Islam is widely regarded as a possible useful counterweight to Obama's Christian faith, which has been a source of suspicion in the minds of many voters.
Other possible candidates include David Duke, whom pundits believe could help Obama make some inroads into the African-American community, and Barbra Streisand, who of course would be an attractive candidate for the NASCAR voters.
