He said he would may name candidates for the cabinet.

What that would probably mean is that he would have more them one surrogate out for broad policy areas. This is particularly important with serving politicians.

So you will see people like Goolsbee and Furman out with Warren and maybe Porter and a couple of others commenting on economics, Harris and Yates out with justice, etc.

Once the VP pick is over this will allow him to keep the party together by having a chorus of voices across the range of the party with even some singing counterpoint.
