The running mate will be publicly announced on Saturday.

Democrats close to Warren and Brown are virtually certain they will not be picked. It also sounds like Hickenlooper, Castro, and Stravidis have been eliminated from consideration as well.

1. It's very exciting! I can't wait to find out who it is!

2. Disappointed since I was Clinton/Castro for a very long time

As someone who is half Latino I was really hoping for Castro but I don't think he meets the experience threshold. In 8 years when Clinton leaves office he may be a contender for the top job. But not quite yet. I honestly am surprised Tim Kaine is still so much in the running because I thought he was disqualified with the recent info about his disclosure of gifts that were deemed in appropriate.

3. Interesting that CNN says she will introduce her VP pick on Saturday in Miami.

It was widely believedreported that she would introduce her VP pick on Friday in Tampa.

4. As much as it pains me to say this, I don't think it will be

Watren, Hinkenlooper, and Castro. Was thinking today that they met briefly with Hillary be a use she is going with someone else in person.

5. Warren is by far the best pick

Nobody else will excite the base and I don't understand why she'd pick someone else. Kaine/Vilsack are completely uninspiring.

6. I don't either.

The electricity the day Clinton and Warren appeared together did it for me.

I'm going to be disappointed.

7. The contrast between

Warren and Pence would massively favor the Democratic Party.

[hamsterjill]

8. I agree.

I just don't get it.

[Expecting Rain]

9. Yep. Warren is the best pick

I'm still holding out hope

[TeddyR]

10. Me too

And Warren would help excite the Bernie supporters

11. If the campaign

is following Democratic boards like DU, then they know how voters feel.

[Her Sister]

14. Not all of us feel that way! I trust the nominee to pick her running mate!

Many great choices: A good problem!

[B Calm]

12. If she wants to unite the party, Warren seems like the logical choice!

[Thrill]

13. Trump should be enough to unite the party

shouldn't need a VP pick for that.

[timlot]

15. I guess she doesn't want to unite the party because it won't be Warren.

This is going to be a turn out election. Democrats are going to vote for Hillary. She will get 90+ AA vote, but she needs to drive up her Hispanic vote. Although Kaine isn't Hispanic, his ability to speak directly to that community in Spanish is a viable asset. Its one thing to have Spanish speaking surrogates, but its a whole other to have someone on the ticket who can communicate to that population.

16. What happened to Friday?

Last I heard Hillary and VP pick had a campaign stop scheduled for Friday.
