Liberal blogger Bill Browning goes out on a limb and says Barack Obama will name Evan Bayh his running mate on Wednesday. Browning offers some sound evidence and logic for such a move.

If it is Bayh, watch out for the backlash from disappointed Hillary supporters -- potentially strong enough to put Obama behind in the polls by next week. The choice of the moderate Bayh may also turn off some of the hard-left anti-war types who would see this as another in a string of just-another-politician moves by Obama.

UPDATE: Politico sees an omen in the cancellation of a game involving Bayh's Senate staff softball team. By the way, have I mentioned lately how much I hate the veepstakes speculation game?
