Kaine from Virginia or Sherrod Brown of Ohio. Experience, and both essential states to carry in the GE.

And I believe she'd be a great choice.

But the Sanders people would likely just stamp their feet and find something else to bitch about.

Oh and one more thing: there has to be a commitment from Martha Coakley that she will NOT run in any special election to fill that seat. That birdbrain needs to stay as far away from a ballot as possible.

damning about Hillary to take her out of the race. Because that's how they roll.

Hillary should not consider them when making her VP choice.

Though EW would be a great choice. But I do think male and Latino is more likely.

Fill the cabinet with the next round of experienced qualified Democratic candidates including 50% women and African-Americans, Latinos, Asian-Americans!

This team of powerful women can continue the process of cleaning up after the centuries of men mucking it all up - the process of cleaning it all up President Obama has started, and Hillary and Elizabeth spent years helping him with!

And of course the mass of head explosions on our fringy left!

But, we're gonna see.. won't be too long now.

Most Bernie folks will come around to Hillary. Things will cool down. To his credit, he has said he would work to defeat Trump. He won't go third party. He will subtly ask his people to "hold their noses" to vote for Hillary to help defeat Trump which he will say is the greater cause, and most will.

I would love EW but I don't want to take any Democrats away from the Senate. She should pick Julian Castro or a governor.

A poll a couple days ago said 72% were already on board. That will go up when she's the official nominee and he endorses her. It'll go up a bit more as the rest have some time to contemplate President Donald Trump.
