Wil U b my VP?

Barack Obama's campaign sent Social Media e-mails Sunday evening inviting folks to "Sign up today to be the first to know" who his running mate will be.

Those who register online at http://my.barackobama.com/vp "will receive an email the moment Barack makes his decision, or you can text VP to 62262 to receive a text message on your mobile phone."

As campaign manager David Plouffe points out: No campaign has done this before.

Meanwhile, Republican presidential candidate John McCain "apparently has figured out the younger generation just fine," according to The Washington Times. The newspaper reported Aug. 8 that in the past two weeks, his "celebrity attacks" have stomped Obama in YouTube hits. You'll find him @ www.johnmccain.com.

This truly is the first 21st-century presidential race.
