The Atlantic has published a piece on the people Barack Obama is supposedly considering as running mates. Here, for your consideration, is the short list, in no particular order:
![]() |
· Sen. Jim Webb (D-VA)
· Sen. Hillary Clinton (D-NY)
· former Sen. Sam Nunn (D-GA)
· Gov. Tim Kaine (D-VA)
· Ex-Sen. Tom Daschle (D-SD)
· Gov. Bill Richardson (D-NM)
· Ex-Sen. John Edwards (D-NC)
· Sen. Chuck Hagel (R-NE)
· Gov. Kathleen Sebelius (D-KS)
· Gov. Janet Napolitano (D-AZ)
· Sen. John Biden (D-DE)
· Sen. Bob Casey (D-PA)
· Sen. Chris Dodd (D-CT)
· ex-Rep. Tim Roemer (D-IN)
· Gov. Ted Strickland (D-OH)
We’re most intrigued by Jim Webb and the excellent Kathleen Sebelius. And, of course, there’s also still the specter of an Obama/Clinton ticket, right?
So who the heck will it be? Come on, let’s head off to the races, already! This campaign is killing us…
Filed Under: Campaign '08



1) Female, Catholic, 60 endorsed Obama early.
2) Educated & Liberal who won re-election as governor in Kansas with 57%
3) Opposed the war in Iraq from the start
4) Can campaign in neighboring Colorado, Kansas and small town Ohio and Pennsylvania
5) Extremely successful in Kansas, reached across party aisles and brought thousands of jobs and balanced budgets. Best executive experience in the country.
It should be either a female or John Edwards. A Female might garnish him the lost feminist votes, and John Edwards is just a good choice.
Personally, I'm thinking Kathleen Sebellus is the best choice (same reasons as Viannis posted), with Edwards getting some other high ranking position in the government and Clinton getting to be Senator of New York.
