Andrew Sullivan nails it, IMHO, in this post:
"I guess some of the McCain team believe that announcing his veep choice tonight as a way to step on Obama's acceptance speech is brilliant politics. I'm not sure that denying the first black candidate a clear shot at making his case on the anniversary of the March on Washington is such a great idea. It just looks cheap and a little desperate; and it robs the next morning of any real drama. But it wouldn't surprise me, given the immature mood-swings of the McCain camp so far. McCain is not acting like a statesman these days - more like a Yaffer of old.
Obama's speech will be the story tonight regardless. Smarter not to step on it. Unless McCain's polling is showing a bigger Obama bump than we are currently aware of." Permalink.
