She can sound sweet while being extremely tough. She knows how to handle the media. She's a moderate and a white woman from the Midwest who would help the ticket in the Midwest and the Mountain West, including New Mexico, Washington and Oregon.

MO really sucks for Democrats. We got lucky to have a strong candidate in her last time around. We're not likely to be able to replace her with a Dem if she becomes Veep. I'd rather go with someone just as charismatic, but without the downside of leaving a black hole behind.
Someone like a former governor would be a better choice.

and honestly, the only reason she won was due to the fact that Talent was a do nothing yes man. The seat would go red for sure. I'm still not convinced she'll retain her seat the next time around.. JMHO

She's already proven herself as an effective surrogate. The list above is by no means exclusive, and I wouldn't mind CNN covering a dozen or more Democrats as they make the case for an Obama presidency.
