Of course, Gore could have picked David Pryor (D-AR) or John Breaux (D-LA) or Dick Gephardt (D-MO) and accomplished the same.  Appealing to elderly Jewish retirees in FL or Jewish voters in general is not something that will help a Democrat, since Jews are a Democratic constituency by and large.  Appealing to a Southern Senator in a Clinton state would have had a specific payoff.

If he wanted to do both he could have picked Don Siegelman.
