(5,737 posts)That talk about picking somebody with experience with security and dealing with foreign governments, to me anyway, was a smokescreen. Hillary is more than qualified to handle that. I really think she will go with Warren.

(42,862 posts)In spite of all the negativity from some folks, I think it's very exciting. Whoever she chooses will be the RIGHT choice!
I trust Hillary.

(24,630 posts)I'm going with Tom Perez - it would be a very unexpected choice, and it would be a shrewd gesture to pick a Labor Secretary when jobs are still a big issue, especially among blue collar males who are likely Trump supporters. He's also Hispanic, a civil rights lawyer, a consumer advocate and a liberal. He checks off a lot of boxes Ds like to see checked off.
Plus, as an unknown and surprise choice, it will dominate the news. He also gets to introduce himself to the public - few know who he is, and the Rs don't have a bunch of canned responses ready for him.

(42,862 posts)... the whole thing is very exciting to me and I'm eager to find out who it is. It's like waiting to open a present on Christmas morning!
Will I be getting the Barbie Dream House or the Malibu Barbie Convertible? I'm hoping for the Dream House, but if it's the Malibu Convertible, I'm not going to pout about it and have a tantrum.

(5,671 posts)Too bad, because there are some great progressives to choose from. She wants someone with foreign policy experience apparently.
