Neither one is what they appear. They may be Tech CEOs but that doesn't mean they actually understand the technological issues facing us.

I think Tim Kaine has done pretty well for himself.

So Podesta sent her an email with a bunch of names, from all walks. I'm sure we wouldn't be surprised if we were to discover the private lists recommended to previous candidates. They might have everyone from movie stars to steel magnates on them. She chose Tim Kaine. End of story. Who cares who someone else put on a list?

Move on, folks.

She wasn't running against a standard Republican nominee. Her considering, if only for a moment, a few outlandish choices to be her VP candidate is perfectly understandable. That being said, thank goodness she came to her senses.

Too bad.

She DID consider Warren, though the fact that the Republican governor of Massachusetts would pick a Republican to fill her Senate seat was a major negative. I just spent a few hours this weekend with Jim Hamilton, who did the vetting for Hillary of her VP candidates. While he wouldn't talk much, he did let me in on some of what went on, and at no time did the names Tim Cook or Bill Gates come up. I'd take Jim's first-hand knowledge before anything Wikileaks sent out. Jim has no agenda. Assange does.
