change message. The country wants AUTHENTICITY. They are working overtime trying to paint Obama as another phony politician.

An Obama/Schweitzer ticket would represent change and authenticity that they couldn't overcome.

Americans will feel COMFORTABLE with Schweitzer. Picking a typical well-known politician would hurt his message.

It would be such an exciting ticket that it would suck all the oxygen out of the race.

Americans are FED UP with Washington politicians. Why do you think the talking heads are CONSTANTLY talking about Bayh etc. for his VP?

Schweitzer would excite Obama's base and bring on board Independents and Republicans. How many VP picks could do that?

Don't pick someone who displayed bad judgment in voting for or supporting the war b/c it will take away one of the core messages (it's about judgment).
