How about Chris Dodd for VP? |
|
He is generally liked within the party. Good foreign policy credentials. Might help Obama with the white male and the catholic vote.
Your thoughts?

4. Then we lose a Senate seat |
|
Ideally, he or she would not be in Congress or a Governor. Or at least not a Senator.
Clark, Edwards, and Daschle are a good start to the Veep list.

And I believe he would be a great VP, however I think there are stronger choices.
Dodd should be senate majority leader.

6. A great Senator that I like a lot |
|
But if he left the Senate CT has a Republican governor. And also I don't think Dodd being from New England helps Obama that much, I feel like he'll be going for a white Southerner.

9. Two senators on a ticket is suicide. |
|
But I'd love to see Chris Dodd as Senate Majority Leader.
(I think it goes without saying that we need a new one)

11. Dodd is an outstanding choice, I prefer Clark because he's from the South. n/t |

14. No benefit for geographical balance... |
|
Obama will be painted as someone who might as well be from the northeast. so I say "GO WEST young man!!" At least as far as west of the Mississippi.

15. He would be a great choice for me. |
|
The problem is he is one of the few that will go to the mat defending the constitution in a body (the senate) where mere politics rules. Would hate for us to lose him in that body. I would like him as Senate majority leader.
