Reply #67: Thanks for the information - I hope he's not the candidate

I actually have a problem with picking a governor at theis point, unless he/she could really impress me on foreign policy. As brilliant as Clinton was - he had a hard time, in an easier time frame dealing with Washington and with foreign policy.

I am sceptical of the we need a Southern Governor - because 2 of them were elected. There are so few people who even get the nomination that trying to find patterns is not sensible as they can be bogus.

For example, let's say that some energetic really brilliant person had taken over the position as head of the Ohio Democrats and had inssred that there were adequate machines and proper training for a huge number of volunteer election day workers and everything went smoothly -leading to a Kerry victory. Would anyone in say 2018, say there were 2 Senators elected President, so we need Senators from Massachusetts, with thick hair and initials of JFK? Not unless you wanted to sound like a lunatic - but it would be based on as much pattern in the past.
