I'd like Franken or Kaine. Tbh, Becerra should be the next Democratic House leader.

Hillary needs someone with a personality and credibility with liberals, Franken would be a good pick.

Merkley would be a sop to the Sanderistas.

Franken for the entertainment value.  Warren is who I'm hoping for though.

I think it’ll be Kaine. He’s a solid pick, Franken was controversial several times in the past. Kaine has no serious disadvantage expect that he’s not that charismatic or exciting. But he’s experienced and from a swing state. If something were to happen to Hillary, he would be ready and qualified to take over as commander-in-chief on Day One.

Massachusetts's Republican governor would then appoint a Republican Senator to fill Warren's spot.

The media's tendency to hold Trump to a lower standard aside, I don't think anything Franken said in the past would look controversial next to Trump's Greatest Hits.
