| 8. Boxer is unquestionably a stronger VP choice than Hillary, but someone with executive experience (a |
|
governor or similar office holder) would better balance Obama than a senatorial colleague. Also, someone who could bring a swing state into our column or bring a red state into play would also be good and Boxer isn't strong in that category either.

Agreed. And, Obama being a moderate, she would "balance" the ticket by being a liberal. |
