Angus King, Bill DeBlasio, Dennis Kucinich, and, lastly, for a diverse ticket, Claire McCaskill or Deval Patrick.

Warren would be the odds-on favorite.

On a related note, I wonder if she has any regrets about not running seeing how much Sanders has closed the gap in Iowa and New Hampshire.

I still think he would pick someone more moderate than he is. He also might have to pick a minority at this point. Cory Booker fits both criteria. He might be too moderate to agree to it though.

If Cory Booker says no, Anthony Foxx (former Mayor of Charlotte, Secretary of Transportation), and Ron Kirk (former Mayor of Dallas/ US Trade Representative) might be African-American alternatives. Loretta Lynch would add a lot of diversity, and emphasize the Obama administration's approach on civil rights.

Klobuchar would be a good pick. I wouldn't suggest two NE senators, with is what Gillibrand would add to the table compared to Klobuchar.
