And Obama is a centrist, not a liberal. If he's perceived as a liberal, we have work to do or the party keeps crawling to the right.

I don't think we have time to introduce another woman who isn't already well known. It's too bad that Feinstein is such a bad actor because someone with her portfolio would be a good fit, imho.

Otherwise, I like Tom Harkin, or someone from the Midwest or the South -- (and Southern CA is pretty much the South except for Hollywood) of about his age and experience.
