I don't believe this was a last minute decision by McCain. It wuld have leaked last night (or earlier) if our convention hadn't been such a success.

1. Yes, I think they knew this week.. But I think its a horrible choice for this
country.. I could not support this ticket ever.. I really would have to move to Canada.. They would fuck this country up so much.. Why do they keep saying this is a good choice... the media suck.

2. As I said in another thread, I think it's possible the pick was made before this week.
They made the pick thinking that they'd steal Hillary voters. They didn't foresee that Hillary would make an incredible speech and that the Democratic Party would appear more united than it has in ages by the end of this week.

They counted on the division that they themselves were plugging through the media, and the division didn't materialize.
