    I'm with you, she's the one I would go with: she's a woman, she's good, she's popular, she's tough, she's been with Obama since the beginning, and she scares the living bejezus out of the Republicans

    Kathleen Sebelius, Bill Richardson(New Mexico Governor), Tim Kaine(Virginia Governor), and Mark Warner(former Virginia governor and current Senate candidate) all seem likely(I included Warner because he has said he's been contacted and has an impressive record as governor.) I have an article you would like, so I'll link it below. I'll pretty much be happy with whoever he picks as long as it isn't Hillary. I'd still vote for him, but I might puke in the booth.

    Edit: Who cares about McCain? It's about picking the person who supports our message most, not shoring up what the other side says are our weaknesses.

    Why do you're saying she brings no longer some thing to the fee ticket? As a governor she has authorities adventure. She is a properly-cherished Democrat in a state that hasn't voted Democratic in a lengthy time period.

    She'd be an outstanding pick...an expert on education policy. She's also a leader in the Democratic Leadership Council, a moderate group that Obama has spurned in a very public way. It would behoove him to reach out the the DLC.

    You've got to be kidding. Her response message to the State of the Union address showed exactly why she would be an awful choice. Ten minutes of incoherent rambling that could have put anyone to sleep.

    He'd be better off taking Richardson.

    Obama has tried to compromise and he still is getting heat for Hillary's fight to go to the DNC,FL and MI got penalized that's it that's all it was over... she pushed the issue, then wasn't happy with the results...I think either way the Clinton are not happy with losing....I think John Edwards should be our Vice President. Hillary has prov en why we are not ready for a women in any presidency..coming from a women

    I like her, but he needs someone who is strong on Security, to counter John McCain's so-called knowledge of National Security.

    Senator Jim Webb would be a good choice, because of his military background.

    Also General Wesley Clark will be another good choice.

    Yes she's one of my top picks along with:

    Janet Napolitano(Governor of Arizona)

    Jim Webb

    not her. So are saying she should be vp because her daddy is a governor?

    She lost the state several hundred jobs by refusing to allow a refinery to be built in a community that wanted it.

    She is of the same far left liberal philosophy as Obama.

    Why bother..Obama is toast, done and over rated! there is no way he can possibly win as president with his baggage. His preacher, his wife and his lies and ties to terrorism. And Kathleen..she is so liberal and a socialist just like the rest of the majority of the democrats are.
