Via the New York Observer, this isn’t as crazy as it sounds. It makes total sense.
Odd thing is, after Hillary presumably dropped the oppo book on Warner to get him out of the Presidential contest, wouldn’t it be the complete definition of irony for Warner to get the one-up on Clinton by snapping up the VP nod.
On the flip side, does Obama need a southern Democrat? Probably so, but he has plenty of choices that the Republican VP nod doesn’t have. Obama can literally take his pick of candidates without losing any of his luster, while McCain has to contend with shoring up the conservative base… and possibly bringing the question of which spirit truly governs the Republican ticket.
Whether Mark Warner takes the VP nod is anyone’s guess. A betting man would wager no, but given the current state of the Democratic nomination, would it surprise a soul?
