You forget Biden’s achievements this year in a lackluster congress…

Nobody has gotten more created passed and done than Joe Biden…seriously.

Over foreign policy that is big when you are trying to get “change’ things passed.

my guess is that YOUR guess is wrong.

This is so on target. It’s about women not a woman.

nahhhh he isnt bold enough hell make a safe pragmatic choice like tim kaine sebelius will be tooo dramatic

You can usually get a feel for who the best fit for VP would be….not who checks off the “vp pre-quals.” ie, as you mentioned in the article……Did anyone really think Gephardt really “felt” like the likely choice…Certainly not, where as many would say Edwards did.

As I think about the gut feeling about the other three mentioned……
Kaine (not even close)….
Byah (perfect on paper, but again not much of a VP feel for having such a perfect resume)….
Biden (fairly good feel as I could sort of see him as a VP…..however, not as a President- which in the end will elimate him).

To me, Sebelius seems to have the right feel for the time, and I have said for over a year now, that She will be the first President, not Hillary.

On a side note, I fully think that John Edwards was going to be the VP as late as 1 month ago, until the 06 affair started coming closer to the surface. Where as I did not think he was perfect for ‘04 VP, I think he is/was for ‘08…He also perfectly fills in the missing appeal (to Ohio/ Penn/ etc) that Obama Lacks.

Even with the affair, I think Edwards is still the best choice…..Kennedy had great judgement in his public life despite personal short comings….examples could go on and on. And many may not agree, but I think it does say something that he told his wife two years ago, rather than waiting until he gets caught and is forced to. Also, Unlike others I do think on some level, 1 affair is different than a history of repeated cheating- which shows no remorse or self correction.

I vote Ronald McDonald

he has soccer mom appeal

Who cares what John Kerry wants,, If I were Obama, I’d listen to John Kerry and do the exact opposite of what he suggests..
I mean, with a Record like John Kerry, what more could you ask for??
A Red Hot Poker of the Whazoola??

Change ” of the Whazoola ” to ” up the Whazoola “..
Forgive me

it’ll be either Gore or Kerry

it’ll be either Gore or Kerry

Jed Clampett

Did you guys happen to catch POV on PBS tonight? It was a little story about how the military was able to take over the country through fear and terror and enslaven the population of Chile with help from the CIA.

If your ‘intelligence’ services can do that to a democratically elected government in another country, what makes you think they won’t do it to you? All it takes is enough money and to be the member of the right kabal, anything can be dissembled when the population has been conditioned to be gullible and react the desired way to a campaign of fear.

Obama will pick Biden
McCain will pick Pawlenty

Obama – Jack Reed (Ex military, Catholic, experienced in foreign policy and defense as well as energy and housing. If not VP then SOD.

McCain – Tom Ridge (best fit for the NeoCon agenda, should McCain croak.)

i say warren beatty, again! as “buggsy” he gets things done. and his senate experience, “bullworth”, proves he’s got the touch with the people.

Okay here are my VP picks.

If Hillary comes out of Denver with the Democrat Party nomination: Ted Strickland.

Barak Obama: Dick Gephardt.

John McCain: John Kasich.

obama – Sam Nunn
mccain — Mitt Romney

Bloomberg.

What about Bloomberg.

What about Bloomberg?

Apparently, I’m very adamant.

Obama needs someone with administrative experience, okay he needs someone with a TON of experience, but that is another issue.
Ed Rendall – Gov of PA swing state and key Hillary supporter
OR
Bill Richardson – Gov of NM, former Clinton Sec of Energy and UN Ambassador, foreign policy experience.

I agree with
Cousin Dave.
It is all about
Ohio,Ohio,Ohio.
McCain cannot win without Ohio.
John Kasich is the ticket for many
reasons.On the Democratic side,
Gephardt would be a great choice.

Ob – HRC
Mc – Ridge

For the good of the country I hope it is General Wesley Clark.

For the good of the country I hope it don`t matter who Obama picks for VP. Because I hope he doesn`t get anywhere near the White House.

But I say he picks Evan Bayh of Indiana. It`s safe and Obama don`t like taking risk.

Rep. Chet Edwards of Texas…for so many reasons, I could see this happen.

Wish you had been right about this. I agree with your reasoning about why Sebelius would have been a great choice. Very disappointed that Obama seemed to lose his vision and courage on this one. As far as the foreign policy experience issue, well, governors like Bill Clinton seemed to do fine. She is the commander in chief of the Kansas National Guard and has been actively involved in Iraq war issues, among other things. Governors have global experience of different order than Senators and she has been an amazing governor.

I’m one of those somewhat unhappy Hillary Clinton supporters, by the way. I was pretty disappointed that Sebelius didn’t endorse her but otherwise I think she’s remarkable.
