Tully, I think that's kind of the fun isn't it? No one really knows. If I worked in an office I would make an office betting pool. It may sound funny, but the way this race has been shaping up really makes me feel like part of the process. People are talking, deliberating, discussing - it's good for us really.
I think the Veep job is wide open. Looking at the CQ site made me dizzy, so many people I never even thought of.
Intuitively, I would think a person of experience, a familiar face that the people really like, maybe someone from the south, a bit more moderate, and notable/respected. Good gosh, could it be...Ted Kennedy? He sort of fits the bill. A solid Democrat, experienced, a Kennedy name, white, older, could be a good choice. Not very moderate though, but hey, this is the Democratic party. Wesley Clark is intriguing but he's been out of the spotlight for a while now, and I really don't know much about him other than he's a military man.
There definitely is a good opportunity here for the Democrats to make some strategic moves throughout the government at all levels, if they can unite and get organized enough. Then maybe our g'ovt can move forward agaon (just please oh please don't raise taxes).
The writing is on the wall.
