Gephardt said to be possible VP pick

*Note this thread is based on a Kerry nomination, which is not assured. Clark or Edwards may yet emerge as a main rival for Kerry.

"There are two reasons Gephardt's backing is important to Kerry," said Donna Brazile, Al Gore's campaign manager in 2000. "Gephardt has a lot of credibility with labor. The states to come are labor intensive. Dick Gephardt has a lot of institutional support. He left the campaign on good graces. Dick Gephardt could conceivably be a potential VP candidate."

This might be a good ticket, instead of Kerry-Edwards (which I also like). Gephardt is from Missouri, which from what I understand is a key swing state.
