VEEPSTAKES:
ABC's Dan Harris takes a look at the Sen. Kerry's Vice Presidential search. He went to Capitol Hill today and met with one contender, Rep. Dick Gephardt. Blocks away, Iowa Governor Tom Vilsack repeatedly refused to say whether he was meeting with Kerry (Vilsack SOT). Conventional wisdom seems to be settling on Sen. John Edwards (Edwards SOT). However, ABC news has learned that Jim Johnson, the man running Kerry's VP search says the nominee should have instant credibility on national security, something many feel Edwards lacks. Other names are still being tossed around, such as Sen. Graham, former Sen. Sam Nunn, William Cohen, Wesley Clark, etc. Kerry gives no hints about his preferences (Kerry SOT). "Conventional wisdom is often flat wrong on the VP search. Few predicted Al Gore, Dan Quayle, Joe Lieberman, or Dick Cheney would get the nod."
