For the love of God....
...we cannot pull anymore Senators out of Congress. The VP candidate should be a governor or at least someone with executive experience.

1. It depends on how blue the state is
If reelecting another Democrat would be a given, or if the state has a Democratic Governor to name a replacement, then being a Senator wouldnt be a problem for us in the Senate.

3. But there's also the issue of seniority
We don't need to lose long-time Senators like Kerry who have a bit of clout in the chamber.

2. I tend to agree. We really need every Senator we've got.
