    i hope it is bloomberg. i liked edwards for the president but an obama-bloomberg is unbeatable and the best choice.
    i think all israeli supporters should push bloomberg to accept.

    I would support a McCain and Bloomberg ticket but nothing with Obama.

    uh... Edwards endorsed Obama a couple of weeks ago now :) old news!

    I think there's a decent shot of Edwards being Obama's VP but I think Edwards run in '04 and the fact that Edwards has said he's not interested in VP on a couple of occasions makes me think he's not going to be the pick.

    Edwards would probably give Obama the most boost in the polls immediately - but I'm not so sure he's the right pick long term.

    All the picks have positives and negatives... It's really a tough choice. I'm very interested in seeing who he picks - I like something about almost all of the choices - although I do hope it is not Clinton as I do not trust her and I think she brings too much baggage to the ticket.

    Interestingly this list doesn't even include Edwards: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2008/05/09/obama-vice-president-pick_n_100869.html

    It also doesn't include Mark Warner who is a recent addition to the VP rumors.

    No mention of Strickland either. Is he not interested?

    I've heard quite a bit of Strickland's name being thrown about. He was included in CNN's recent list... But really this stuff is all guessing games at this point. I don't want Clinton or Hagel but I'd be pretty much OK with anyone else that's been brought up.

    Edwards couldn't carry his own state nor his own district (where he lives) in 2004. Why add him this time? He's a bigger dufus now.

    Edwards is better that the Clintons. Obama doesn't need a VP that will steal attention from him like the Clintons could.

    Pretty sure Ron would move to Canada before he would go for that.
