Running mate heading your way

Jim Riley

By the time you read this you may already know who Barack Obama has chosen as his running mate - particularly if you are one of the many of his supporters to have received the news by text. I don’t know why I have bought into the feverish speculation, since VPs don’t win elections. Perhaps I should get a life. Anyway, the hot money is still on Tim Kaine, but I have nailed my colours to the mast by backing Kathleen Sebelius. Time will tell.
