The downside of Klobuchar is you have to hope you don't lose that Senate seat. Plus she's a lot like Biden. Comes across as nice and folksy. I think the VP needs to be charging up the base and I just don't see that from her.

Whitmer is interesting and seems to be polling extremely well in a crucial state. Just don't know much about her. Would be skeptical of anyone who was part of a poor early state response.

I still think Warren would be his best pick. It'd be a bone toward the progressive wing of the party. She's really smart and could be put on TV every day blasting a message.

I agree with you Rainmaker. In order Harris, Warren and Whitmer. I also think a underdog pick like Val Demmings might be good. That could help with Southern, Black, female and Florida constituents. I am worried with Warren she could get a response like Clinton did from within the Bernie voting block and not sure she helps with black voters.
