I've always thought he'd make a great vice president, but I can also see him being called to serve as either Attorney General or a Supreme Court Justice.

I also take exception to the remark that Hillary backed Obama into a corner by offering to take the spot--what she said was something more along the lines of she would consider it. What was she supposed to say when asked? Think about it-- what would have been a better answer that wouldn't have made it seem like sour grapes. I think it should be Feingold. As long as we are going with the first man of color we might as well push it all the way with choosing people not based on where they live. So what if WI and ILL are neighboring states? It's not like the midwest is seen as radical central-- that would be CA. It would also scrap a whole lot of that Muslim crap that's still flying around the mass e-mail circuit. Besides, Feingold balances nicely with Obama. Obama is more flamboyant and Feingold is the studious guy. One is seen as being a great speaker and the other as a great thinker. my 2 ¢ Kathleen Sebelius would be a huge slap in the face of the Hillary supporters–take my word on this one.

She has taken herself out of the running by her attempts to offer herself for the position and back Obama into a corner to choose her. With that in mind, here's my top 5: 1) Jim Webb 2) Mark Warner (probably won't happen, but I love Warner) 3) Kathleen Sebelius 4) Bill Richardson 5) Tim Kaine? Practically, I think it will come down to Webb and Sebelius. At this point it’s not going to be Hillary.
