Just 3 picks for VP: Clark, Webb, Richardson

1. I think I'd be ok with any of them.

[Tom Rinaldo]

6. Me too.

They all have advantages. Clark is my first choice, I know and trust him. Richardson brings a lot to the table. Webb is great, but I'm not sure a ticket with two first term Senators is wise, and I hope we could hold his Senate seat Democratic in Virginia if Webb became VP.

I really hope we don't end up with someone relatively conservative like Nunn or Bayh out of electoral considerations.

2. I'd be ok with any of them... But still would not want to take Webb out of the Senate.. n/t

[femmocrat]

5. Ditto!

We have a good chance of gaining another democrat Senator in VA next time.

I don't think two first-term Senators will run together, either.

3. Voted for Webb, but I really like them all

[Inspired]

4. I'd like to see Clark independent from the Clinton's first.

He's always been in their pocket.

7. Out of the 3 of them Richardson is the obvious choice.

I don't know what it is about Clark but there's clearly something missing there.

And Webb has repeatedly and vigorously denied any interest at all in the job. At this point I'd have to take him at his word.

Richardson would have to be my choice although he might really fit better as Secretary o' state.

8. Obama/Richardson has been my dream ticket since Dec. '06, so I had to vote for it

[newmajority]

9. Two senators on a ticket is suicide.

And that's the only real objection I have to Webb.

Clark and Richardson are both on my short list, and I can easily see both of them in the Obamadministration. The one who is not VP will probably be Secretary of State.

10. clark or webb as sec def

[Leopolds Ghost]

11. If Clark wants to be considered, he needs to quietly break with the Clintons.

Maybe he's holding fire in order to make it a unifying move at the
convention, while privately in talks with Obama about being Obama's
liason inside the Clinton war room. If I were Clark that is what
I would be doing.

12. Dennis Kucinich

:hide:

[newmajority]

15. That would certainly solidify the message of CHANGE

And we would get a better health care plan. But I'm not sure a congressman on the ticket would be any better than two senators.

[RiverStone]

19. DK head of the newly created Dept. of Peace!

There was talk at some point of creating a new cabinet position and a Department of Peace. Dennis should be a shoo in for that! :applause:

[MadBadger]

13. These three right here are my shortlist

[Stop Cornyn]

14. Richardson and Webb are the only two who bring electoral votes to the table.

[sfam]

16. Sebelius is my choice...

[ObamaKerryDem]

17. I voted Richardson!

Ever since I saw him take on Carville on LKL recently, he's been on my short list! :)

[krawhitham]

18. an Obama/Richardson ticket will lose

Webb Is a fair weather Dem who will bring more problems than voters


I guess that leaves Clark

[olkaz]

20. Biden, Biden, Biden. Period.

Maybe Webb, but Biden is the best choice.
