Possible nominees
- Mark Warner
- Martin Heinrich
- Sherrod Brown
- Julian Castro
- Steve Beshear
- Martin O'Malley
- Tim Kaine

All bring something different to the table but does it really matter?

I think Tim Kaine would be a great VP pick, Beshear is way too old and too conservative for a national Dem ticket I don't know why people even include him.

The demographics will be different in 2016. The democrats can't win with only 38-40% of the white vote as the minority vote will be less.

I don't think the VP nominee will really matter unless he/she is a terrible campaigner or is Palin-esque.

But of those choices...
-Warner was sued for sexually harassing his female employee
-Julian Castro in inexperienced
-Steve Beshear, while good, is old and not progressive enough for today's base
-Martin O'Malley is boring and has no vision
-Tim Kaine is just off, I don't trust him

you forgot to add the reaction the insurance industry/wall street would have if Hillary selected Sherrod Brown
