It would be awesome if they had planned to rescind when they chose him.

I think they have to officially call..... "DOOOOO- OOOOVERRR!" first. Then prove someone was not actually ready when the original vote took place.

Obama.  The Committee took this action in responding to criticism that their <A href="http://nobelprize.org/nomination/peace/process.html">website</A> states the deadline for Peace Prize nominations was February 1, 2009, which gave Obama less than two weeks in office before being nominated.  Accordingly, the Committee has decided to give the award to its runner-up – US Representative Charles Rangel of New York.</blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/63CEFC08-2C4B-4E59-B1CC-2A4AEA044DBE/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content6.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
