Temple O-bama; GOP Veep Leak?

image While one Clinton after another took the stage in Denver to vow to support their once-rival Barack Obama (via DailyKos, HuffPo, and Salon), things over in the GOP big tent are less harmonious, according to the Carpetbagger Report. If McCain picks a pro-choice VP, the Bush-Rove coalition will explode into a thousand little pieces (via The Fix). Robert Novak returned from retirement to forewarn the disaster looming if McCain chooses Lieberman, and Politico reports that Karl Rove himself called Lieberman to implore the turn-coat senator to withdraw his name from consideration. On FOXNews, Rove denied those claims (via ThinkProgress). Meanwhile, the Dems in Denver want Lieberman stripped of his committee assignments in the Senate for being a "traitor to his party" (via The Hill). Other rumors have Matt Drudge teasing a potential leak of McCain's choice on the top of his web page tonight during Obama's speech. Meanwhile, the question about Obama's performance tonight is less about what he'll say (warning, satire!) than about where he'll say it (via MyDD and Politico): framed by Greek architecture in front of 80,000 registered voters (via The Caucus and The Swamp). How is that bad? Just ask the sneering GOP operatives (via Illinois Reason and Swampland) who mock it as greek hubris. 

Elsewhere, McCain gets prickly with Time, and the Dems plan to celebrate to the anniversary of McCain's oldness (via Washington Wire).
