You are forgetting two very important facts.
1. This is an election year, and
2. The American electorate has the attention span of gnats.
If I were Obama I would wait until 10 days before the convention to name someone. This will leave the republicunts time to lose their fucking minds and give the democratic nominee a chance to act very presidential...as opposed to the shitstorm that the others will be putting on.
