Jim Webb and Ted Strickland are too new to their jobs to be chosen.

They both have previous experience though.  Webb was Secretary of the Navy and Strickland was in the House for 12 years.

If nominated, she will pick Obama.  Why you ask?  One word.  MONEY.  He has raised tons of money and she will want it to go toward their combined campaigns.  He is also from a safe Dem state for his replacement in the Senate.

Obama will spend most of that money trying to win the nomination.  Whatever's left will be a paltry sum compared to whatever HRC (or really, any potential major party nominee this year) would be able to raise for the GE.

Catholics just don't block-vote the way they once did. There might be a tiny number who do, but they are certainly not going to swing the election; the only 2004 Bush state with an above-average Catholic population is New Mexico. Every other Bush state has a lower percentage of Catholics than the national average.

According to Wikipedia, there are a number of others:

like Arizona, Louisiana, and North Dakota.  Now granted, Wikipedia is often wrong, and I'm too lazy to look up the original source, but are you sure NM is the only one?
