44. Who would be a good "neutral" choice in your estimation..

it seems like a lot of the resistance to him here is because he's not progressive enough. I think Obama probably chose him because of his personal qualities and political abilities, not necessarily for his ideology. I also think he was sending a message to the republicans because they hate him intensely. The message being, we're willing to work with you, but we're not pandering to you, so don't get any crazy ideas.
