Olympia Snowe

[Ronnie]

I would vote for her in an instant, but she is a horrible speech writer, and delivers almost as terribly as Bush.  She is popular among Dems (especially the moderate ones), but the south would be absolutely demoralized with the pick, and there would be record low turnout among the base.

Overall, I think it would be a wash, and it's not really worth the risk, especially if she would lose.
