But I think it should be someone with legislative experience. He needs someone with the skills to shephard bills through congress.

As a general managing bases and dealing with domestic programs on those bases, he stands to gain a lot less from having a governor as a VP. He already has executive domestic governance experience and has foreign policy down, but he lacks legislative experience. Thus, a senator or congress critter would work well with Clark. I suppose it's ok if the VP is a governor who previously held a position in the legislature. But a governor without legislative experience won't really help Clark, since Clark has that governing thing down already.

And whoever is his VP should also bring a swing state with him.

Many have expressed a preference for Clark/Dean, but I think it's not so much Dean that Clark needs, but rather Trippi.
