I think Kerry needs a Southern or a rust-belt governor, but Dean would also bring a lot to the ticket.

There's no way Kerry will choose McCain or Nader.

Clark terrifies me, and Kerry is not exactly weak in the area of defence. Neither Edwards nor Gephart could deliver votes that weren't Kerry's already.

Just my opinion.

I disagree about Edwards; I think he can bring people in that wouldn't otherwise be interested. He has the charisma that Kerry lacks, and the southerner thing could help.

As far as Nader goes, there's an outside chance that Nader could be persuaded to drop out in Dean were the VP candidate. He appeared ready to sit out if Dean were at the top of the ticket.
