Who should they pick?

So now that it looks like we know who's going head to head in November, who do you think Obama & McCain should pick as their Vice Presidential running mates?

Do you think the VP choice makes a difference for voters?

Would you change your vote for one candidate based only on their running mate?

For me, I'd like to see Obama team up with Wesley Clarke. I think that VP candidates do make a small difference, but I wouldn't change my vote if Obama picked someone like, say, Zell Miller. I'd just want to make sure nothin' happened to him.

As far as McCain goes, I think he needs a young, charismatic conservative to balance their ticket. I keep hearing Bobby Jindal being mentioned. He's sure a young up & comer!

Well, on to the general election, sorry that Hillary thing didn't work out for you ladies, but, the country doesn't want to go back to the corruption of the Clinton's, they want to go forward, and I agree with oohchild about Wesley Clarke, good choice, and Mcain, hmm, someone like Colin Powell would be good. Ohh, have you heard about Obama visiting all 57 states?, yes, thats right, WOW, he really gets around, they are even making a lapel pin that he might wear,

Yes, I do think who they pick for a vp matters... 

Obama should choose Clinton, Edwards or Biden.   I will definately vote this year.. 

McCain should choose a very conservative/religious white male, and yes it probably would be better if he chose someone young. 

 I believe there will be a Democratic president in 2009, I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

For the first time in my life as a registered voter...I am declining to vote in November. Voting is just a symbolic gesture anyway, making the peasants feel as though they have a say in the actual election. My husband has been preaching that to me for years, I'm finally agreeing with him. So, to answer your question, it really no longer matters to me whom they each choose. And no, I won't change my mind even if Clinton was chosen...
