Getty Images' Preview of the Democratic National Convention in Denver

While all eyes (and some of our C&L bodies--Hi Amato!) turn to Denver, the bobbleheads that populate the Sunday airwaves will need to pontificate on every aspect of Barack Obama's upcoming nomination as the Democratic candidate for President, including--most obviously--his choice of Joe Biden as running mate. Let's see how close to verbatim they get to AP's concern troll...er, Washington Chief Ron Fournier's article yesterday. Actually, is there any way to do a forensic search of Karl Rove's fax machine to see if the article originated there?

ABC's "This Week" - David Axelrod, Obama campaign senior adviser; former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani.

CBS' "Face the Nation" - Govs. Kathleen Sebelius, D-Kan., and Ed Rendell, D-Pa.; Rep. Jesse Jackson Jr., D-Ill.

NBC's "Meet the Press" - Caroline Kennedy, co-chair, Obama's vice presidential search committee; House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif.

CNN's "Late Edition" - Sen. Bob Casey, D-Pa.; Gov. Janet Napolitano, D-Ariz.; Sen. Jack Reed, D-R.I.; Rep. James Clyburn, D-S.C.; Terry McAuliffe, Clinton campaign chairman.

"Fox News Sunday" - Govs. Tim Kaine, D-Va., and Bill Ritter, D-Colo.; Robert Gibbs, Obama campaign spokesman.

"Chris Matthews Show" - Panel: Rick Stengel, Katty Kay, Michelle Cottle, Ron Allen. Topics: Will Obama's new running mate prove to be a winning pick? Are the Clintons doing enough to help ensure Obama wins?

C-Span - Sunday Schedule - CSpan1 is all DNC/all day long. BookTV has Fire Breathing Liberal's Rep. Robert Wexler, Obamanation hack Jerome Corsi, The Wrecking Crew's Thomas Frank and Promises to Keep's Joe Biden all scheduled to discuss their books.

So what's catching your eye this morning?
