(617 posts)I've always felt this way, ever since '04 when I thought that (on paper), Wesley Clark was a great fit (turns out that he wasn't so great at campaigning or speaking) because of his Southern roots.
Now, it seems that Obama can win without the South (Thank GOD!), but I still think Southern plays better in the Midwest than Northeast liberal. And I think minority plays better with minorities than older Caucasian male.
But don't want to leave out the ladies - I think Hillary would be great (and having Bill campaigning HAS to be an overall plus), and yes, didn't think of Elizabeth Warren, but she would be great too.
Just not a northeastern liberal. I have nothing against the region, in fact when we return to the US, we've already decided we want to live in New England for a while (give the South a break....phew, it can be tiring with the relatives).
