Just read the linked article. I like Edwards or Gephardt. Edwards because I believe there would be the same kind of synergy that Clinton and Gore had in 1992. That caught Bush Sr. off guard and helped us win. I doubt that Bush Jr will be caught off guard. Like it or not, the fact is that he is much more astute politically than the Old Man. After all, Jr studied Bill Clinton when he wanted to learn how to win an election.
I also like Gephardt, but more for geographical reasons. Missouri is going to be close again and Gephardt helps there. I have to acknowledge that Edwards would help in SC as well. I also believe that Gephardt will do better matched against Cheney than Edwards. That's not a slap at Edwards. It's just that Gephardt has been at this a long time. However, I would be satisfied with either as VP.
Finally, Clark for Sec of State works for me. Not VP.
