Who's with me? I like Webb a lot, but I think he's needed more in VA. Two Senators, especially two freshmen, isn't the best idea. I'm liking Gov. Schweitzer the more I hear about him! Let's put him on the ticket! Obama/Schweitzer 08!

1. I've liked him for a while, too ... Is he a second-term governor now? |
|
Just wondering how much "executive experience" he has at this point.

3. Governor Schweitzer is in my top 5 picks for VP |
|
Along with Jim Webb, Wesley Clark, Kathleen Sebelius, and Ted Strickland.

I can't think of one single negative -- if you've got one, post it.
We desperately need to keep our Senators in the Senate -- and get more!

9. Agreed...tighter control of the senate is key to our national strategy. |
|
Losing Webb hurts that cause.

He *is* the Democratic party in Montana. If he goes Montana slips back to deep red. Thats the near the only argument I've heard against him.

10. K&R Schweitzer would be a fantastic choice for VP. |
|
His knowledge of the Middle East and Arabic alone is invaluable during these trying times.

12. And that is just the icing on the cake |
|
If he was picked merely for his demographic appeal (western and rural voters) he would be slam dunk. The fact that he is very intelligent, progressive, spent time in the middle east and speaks fluent Arabic just makes the choice that much better.
