  •  I love your list! (1+ / 0-)

    I hug your list.  I smooch it on the cheek.  I pat it on the head.  I will snug it and feed it and name it George.  It is the perfect list for me!  Yay!  I will quote it with abandon.

    I love Kathleen Sebelius because I'm from Kansas and she was elected right after I left the state, convinced that it would never get its head out of its ass... oh, a beam of light is Kathleen Sebelius.  And I have been half in love with Janet Napolitano since she showed up on NPR's "Wait Wait Don't Tell Me" and was HILARIOUS.  And Chris Dodd is, well, Chris Dodd.

    •  Sebelius would build on unity theme. (1+ / 0-)

      She gets my vote. Because her collaborative skills are nothing short of amazing and she's one persuasive lady!  She was brilliant wooing moderate Republican leaders to flip and join the party and Kansas is on a solid footing thanks to her leadership.

      Only downside I can see is that Kansas will want to keep her where she is, she's doing great things for the state.

        Except you're right we would miss her and cringe at the thought of who might replace her. Also, McCaskill is quite fiesty and could get Missouri to go Dem, probably before Kansas, although maybe this year is the year with Obama. I think choosing a woman would greatly help bring Dems together for November.

          And I'd hope she could be active and busy as President of the Senate.  Her skills at getting moderate Republicans to flip... would be ideally applied there, wouldn't they?

          voted and worked for her----but her hubby has financial and investment issues and it could be a rerun of Ferraro in 1984. These were raised constantly in her races against Talent and Blunt.

          Who needs it?
