Tim Kaine sounds like a terrible running mate to me.
People 2 states away from here don't even know who he is.
VP's an overrated position for sure, but at least run with someone who has some street cred on a national level.

Tim Kaine would not be a good choice. He has no foreign policy experience. Yes, he is a pro-life Dem, but he doesn't have the track record in Virginia to carry it like Mark Warner would.
If it weren't for the fact she was a Jewish woman from San Francisco, I think Dianne Feinstein would be the perfect candidate. Unfortunately the country is having a hard enough time accepting a black man as POTUS, making the situation more complicated with the VP position won't help.

Yeah, because she has no baggage. She NEVER helped her husband get millions of dollars worth of government contracts while on the MILCON subcommittee and her staff was never caught trying to delete references to that on wiki. Class act all the way.....
