Rep. Robert Wexler for VP?
Not a name I hear mentioned very much for VP, but what do you think? So far my top choice
would probably be Brian Schweitzer, but Wexler sounds like an interesting option.


Pros:
- Could help with Florida
- Outspoken supporter of Bush impeachment hearings
- Not a senator
- A powerful speaker

Cons:
Feel free to add your own

1. Yes
I found myself thinking the same thing during the rules and bylaws committee meeting a week ago.

2. The big problem is he's not that well-known and just a House member
He will make a kick ass Senator one day, hopefully in two years when Mel "fuck Martinez" is up for re-election. He's definitely got a bright future in the party.

3. No. We need him on the ground in FL....he's just about the only sane (D) down there...
...the rest are about as useful as a kick-stand on a Jackass...
