Reply #26: VP Candidates

[mndemocrat_29]

My fave candidate, John Kerry, would need to balance his ticket off with a Southern Democrat (Max Cleland would've been perfect here, if he'd won reelection).

Kerry/Graham
Kerry/Clark
Kerry/Landrieu

Bob Graham would need someone who was younger and a fresher force in politics, possibly even a first term senator or a representative.

Graham/Tauscher
Graham/Locke
Graham/Cantwell

Howard Dean needs someone with experience, definitely someone from another part of the country, and someone with Washington street cred

Dean/Graham
Dean/Bayh
Dean/Dorgan

Dick Gephardt needs someone who can show he's not the Bob Dole of this race. He needs someone with a lot of gusto, probably some name recognition, and someone perceived as a political mover-and-shaker.

Gephardt/Feingold
Gephardt/Durbin
Gephardt/Schumer

And, if none of these tickets work out, we can always rely on the old guard to come and win this race.

Carter/Hollings
Lautenberg/Mondale
Byrd/Foley
