I wonder why Steele is considered, and not J.C. Watts. I want to see the other half of this list, dammit.
Texas Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison - A+ pick. No major issues on the issues and a woman to boot. Only thing I can think of as a draw back is age. If Obama gets the nomination Texas is a lock for the GOP for day 1 (as opposed to week 1, which is the norm) so I don't see much help there, but geography is less a factor in choosing a VP these days. Point is, if McCain dies Hutchison can take over in a second.
I deleted a much snarkier comment, so let me just say this: she's not going to make the ticket look any younger or more dynamic.
It'd be funny if Obama tries to offset her by picking Kathleen Sebelius as his veep. How's
that for women in high office, you crazy Hillary-supporting old-school feminists?
