No, Vilsack
No,Ghepthhardt

If the game only knows the statistics... you'd think florida would factor in as well as Indiana, Ohio, Oregon, etc. There are, what, 18 battleground states this time around? It isn't just Iowa and Missouri. So as far as the game mechanic goes, I think it makes perfect sense without such concerns as Vilsack (whom I feel is an awful choice for VP) or even Gephardt (whom I feel to be the third best choice for VP). By these statistics, of course, I mean historic stats as well as electoral ones. For example: no Republican in the past 50 years has ever won office without Ohio, thereby making Ohio a big battleground. Frankly I just don't know if these sort of statistics are factored in though, just my two cents.

Now that Chaney has shown his true colors by telling someone to “F” off on the Senate floor, I would love to see Governor Howard Dean M.D. be ask to join Kerry’s ticket. There is nothing they can say about a pumping fist while yelling Yaaahhh, compared to “F” off by Chaney.

The press would be stupid to get into that debate.

Also, Dean is the best debater of the bunch. He makes a lot of since when speaking about the issues and has no problem making his points when confronting the Bush record. He would be able to deal with Health Care as VP and if ever needed would make a great president.

According to Judy Woodruff's Inside Politics on CNN right now, Joseph Biden (the only congressman to have a son in the military), and Dick Durbin of my home state of Illinois have apparently made it to Kerry's no-longer-so-short-short-list. Just thought I'd pop the gossip here.
