Sam Nunn … bartender, not vice-president?
August 5, 2008 at 3:23 pm by Scott Freeman in NewsFormer U.S. Sen. Sam Nunn is said to be one of the leading candidates to be named as Barrack Obama’s running mate. But he’s also going to be one of the celebrity barkeeps for a Sept. 7 benefit for the March of Dimes at my fav Mexican restaurant in Atlanta, Nuevo Laredo Cantina.
That’s after the Democratic convention, which leads inquiring minds (like colleague Andisheh Nouraee, who’s off for a few weeks to finish a book but passed this tidbit along anyway) to ask:
Reading the tea leaves, is this a sign that he’s not going to be the vice-presidential nominee? After all, he likely wouldn’t be able to take time away from a presidential campaign to be a celebrity bartender at Nuevo Laredo.
Or could this be a head fake to make us think he’s not going to be the Democratic vice-presidential candidate?
Of course, there’s always the possibility he booked the gig in April.
