I wonder how the elevation of another Rockefeller to the Vice Presidency would have affected the country and its political fortunes...

Which potential Clinton running mate would have maximized the chances of the Democrats winning the White House a third time in 2000?  Would any of the others have done better than Gore did IRL?


Few of these seem very good for the 2000 election. Maybe Bradley to keep a few of the party's left-wing loyal, or Wilder to offer his home state of Virginia and a lot of media attention for his race. Harkin seems to be a safe but boring choice who would ultimately fail to win the Dems a third term, Kerrey might only amplify Clinton's marital issues, Mitchell's old. Rockefeller might offer something in the way of West Virginia, but I doubt his ability to expand on Gore's states beyond that. Tsongas would be dead and I know nothing about Wofford other than what I just read on Wikipedia, and he's friggin' old.
