[quote=Anonymous]Tim Kaine speaks spanish fluently, he's from a swing state and has a pretty decent records as a governor.  He's certainly got the democratic cred by being DNC chair for awhile.  I'm not sure how well he plays across the country.  Seems like geographically it would be nice to have someone from the midwest or west.  But, as a former gov., he has some valid executive experience that it wouldn't be laughable for him to be 2nd in line.  Julian Castro seems like a nice guy.... but probably not enough experience that counts yet... and not enough charisma to overcome that (but I could be wrong on that ... I haven't seen enough of him to be sure).

It might also depend on who the repub. nominee is.  If it is someone like Rubio with little experience, a Julian CAstro vp might be o.k.  If it nominee is someone like Christie, then Kaine might be a better vp.  If the nominee is Trump--- I don't know who Clinton should pick, but it probably should be someone loud and brash... to counter Trump.  If it is Cruz, Clinton should try to find someone with connections to  religious groups.

Bottom line... her pick has to be a strategic choice that takes into account the strengths and weaknesses of the republican nominee.[/quote]
