Webb would be a good choice because he'd be a good campaigner, bring some military credentials to the ticket and would attract rural Southern and Midwestern voters. His status as a Vietnam war hero and as a maverick cabinet secretary would put to bed any questions about lack of experience. However, I have to say that I don't particularly like his Buchananite views.

Ken Salazar might appease moderates and bring CO (and NV) into the Democratic column.

I also wouldn't put my money on Richardson. He asked himself to be removed from the process, leading Shrum to speculate it was because of skeletons in his closet. Also, his foreign policy creds are undermined by the fact he's constantly flip-flopped on Iraq and most of his experience conisists of hugging dictators and negotiating deals that collapsed after 5 minutes. A HA on the ticket would be good for Clinton but Ken Salazar would be a much safer choice.
