And every cycle its done a little differently. In 2008, not only were the conventions much later that year, they didnt happen till it august and september, but the order was reversed from this year in 2008, the democrats went first. Democrats held their big nominating convention for barack obama and joe biden in denver. You might remember it culminated with that big speech in that huge arena in denver where barack obama spoke on than set with the big theatrical columns. It was very dramatic. The republicans that year in 2008, they made a Bold Decision that they would take advantage of the fact that the democrats were going first and they would take advantage of the fact that the conventions were so late that year. So the momentum coming out of the conventions was going to be really important for the general election. Because of those two factors they decided to do something very bold. They decided in 2008 that one day after the Democratic Convention was over, the very next day, john mc

They decided in 2008 that one day after the Democratic Convention was over, the very next day, john mccain would name his Vice President ial running mate. They didnt name the person who was going to run with mccain till after the democrats had their convention. Its kinds of a genius move. It meant the biggesting move who john mccain was going to pick as his running mate was this is distracting parlor game that everybody was nattering about all through the Democratic Convention when they should have been talking about barack obama and joe biden. It also met when john mcca
