Media VP Short List - The DU Choice?

so the media seems to have its short list, of these who do YOU like?

they're on the long list. Just sayin'.

where MSNBC readers voted on an original slate of 16 candidates, narrowing the field each week, the winner was Biden - Hillary Clinton was the other finalist.

Sidenote: Romney won the Repub Veepstakes on MSNBC.

:patriot:

I'm hoping for the surprise choice of Brian Schweitzer, actually.

I think an attack dog VP would help Obama a lot, since Obama's nature is not to get nasty.

Not any of these three.

wouldn't you?

Tim Kaine!

Governor of Virginia - could influence "Southern" vote (Mr. Retrograde, ex-Alabamian, insists Virginia is not the real South). Also has administrative experience to offset some of Obama's "inexperience": I would not like to see 2 senators on the ticket.

He's also a Catholic, with ties to Jesuits (I'm going by the Wikipedia article here: I don't know much about him). That would place the Catholic powers-that-be in a bit of a dilemma: push for the GOP candidate on the grounds he's anti-abortion, or push for the Dem candidate to get a Catholic into high office.

I still want Richardson, but I guess we can save him for Sec. of State. Hillary for Attorney General!


ETA: Kaine may also help pick up some of the Confused Voter demographic: Kaine, McCain, what's the difference? A vote's a vote :)

eom

This whole cycle has been a disaster.

And more likely, since his name hasn't been beaten to death in the press.
