First, Kerry and McCain go together like Peas and Motor Oil. Yes, I'd vote for them, because they would thump Bush bloody, But I would also spend the next four years sending nastygrams to the whitehouse about the worm in their apple. I respect john McCain, but he is the wrong party. If he were the Democratic vice president in 2004, he would be the republican president in 2012, and I could live without another republican in the whitehouse for another 24 years (or more).
Ted Koppel is far and away the better choice if you want to come from cloud-cuckoo land for the VP. Walter Cronkite is better yet (though, of course, he has the sense to say "are you out of your fucking mind?!?!!" if asked)
