1. We like Warren

but whomever she wants, I don't think she will leave senate.

2. Julian Castro, all the way!!! eom

[BreakfastClub]

4. I like him too. nt

[BreakfastClub]

3. I think it will be Sherrod or Castro. nt

5. It will not be an all female ticket,

and if it was, it would be better for Eluzabeth Warren to be at the top as her favorability rating is higher. But she isn't so that's a moot point. I don't think she would run as VP anyway. Neither would Bernie.

I see some sort of bland, middle of the road safe choice who won't upstage the candidate and won't disagree on policy. Maybe Tim Kaine?

I think it will be much more interesting to see who Trump picks, or rather who the party establishment picks for him. If he implodes or simply quits, which isn't unlikely, they'll want someone acceptable to TPTB to carry on.

7. Don't forget that Harry Reid has been researching special elections for Mass.

that's an indicator that Warren is seriously being considered for a VP slot (or quitting altogether).

And thinking that there couldn't be a successful all female ticket is naive at this point. Warren shores up some Sanders supporters should Bernie decide not to play ball--which his speech last night indicates could be likely. And her fave ratings only helps Clinton, not hurt her.

I think Warren would be the a great strategic pick but I'm guessing it's going to be Castro.

11. Castro says he's not being vetted. Still don't think

Elizabeth Warren would want to run with Hillary. Too far apart politically to be a good team. Just my opinion.

[justiceischeap]

12. It'll be interesting to see how the whole Warren thing plays out

Hillary can be a team player, as can Warren. Personally, I would love to see such a bold move.

13. there is precedent for the ticket to include members of the same gender nt

[brooklynite]

6. Definitely NOT Brown...

Dems would lose a Senate seat.

[kay1864]

10. True for Warren as well

And Cory Booker.

I seriously doubt that HRC will risk her Supreme Court nominees (for the next six years) by losing the Senate by one seat.

[BlueStater]

8. Oh, yeah. Empty suit Castro. He would REALLY get me enthused about voting for Hillary.

[pinebox]

9. Where's Hickenlooper?

He has been mentioned many times but not listed here?

[geek tragedy]

14. I'm hoping for Amy Klobuchar if not Elizabeth Warren. nt

[Doctor Jack]

15. Tim Kain?

I remember him being fairly weak, especially as DNC chairman. I wouldn't have a lot of faith in him to help the ticket

[geek tragedy]

16. also, Democratic bench in VA is not terribly deep nt
