The reason Hilary isn't the candidate in the first place is because people DIDN'T want her as president...why would they want her as vice president? As for running mates, Webb doesn't work because of the experience issue, Hagel and that is not going to happen. Sibelius? Interesting choice...I do think Obama will be looking for a governor to add "executive" experience ... probably Bill Richardson The whole dream ticket thing is silly–whose dream ticket?

Hagel, however, sounds pretty good; it would help him with independents, white men, and most importantly demonstrate his willingness to work across party lines and create a "post-partisan" political environment. I've been hoping Obama would choose Kathleen Sibelius as his running mate to mend fences with female voters, but Hagel might actually be better.
