Update: It won't be Chuck Hagel. The Obama camp sent out "first to know" emails. Supporters can sign up to get a text message when Obama chooses his vice president. I guess this means he'll announce before Obama accepts the nomination on Aug. 28.
I'm leaning toward Tim Kaine, but now I'm thinking it could be someone who's been very quiet.
Also, at the convention, Michelle Obama will speak Monday, Aug. 25; Hillary Tuesday; Obama's vice president Wednesday and Bill Clinton also on Wednesday, according to CNN.
CNN: The Democratic National Convention announced its “headline” speakers Sunday, with Hillary Clinton and Michelle Obama each getting a starring role in prime time.
As CNN’s Suzanne Malveaux and Candy Crowley reported last month, Clinton will speak on Tuesday night. That day, August 26th, will be the 88th anniversary of the ratification of the 19th Amendment to the Constitution, which gave women the right to vote.
A statement from the convention called Clinton a “champion for working families and one of the most effective and empathetic voices in the country today.”
Michelle Obama will address the convention in the headline spot on Monday night.
Wednesday night will feature a speech from Barack Obama’s still unnamed running mate. Former president Bill Clinton will also speak that night.
Obama will accept the party’s nomination Thursday night, delivering his acceptance speech away from the convention hall at the larger Invesco Field at Mile High. Sixty-thousand tickets for his speech were given away the first day they were made available. His speech, on August 28th, comes on the 45th anniversary of Dr. Martin Luther King’s “I Have a Dream” speech.
