Veepstakes

Catching up on Countdowns from days gone by...and Jonathan Alter floated three names as Obama veeps:


  • Anthony Zinni. I don't know much about Zinni other than that he's a retired General who opposed the Iraq War.
  • Jim Webb. Not a bad idea.
  • Sam Nunn. Yikes. Not another "bi-partisan" independent Democrat. If Obama's campaign is floating Nunn's name I'll be pretty ticked off. (Kerry considered him in 2004 and chose the guy who I think Obama should choose, should Obama get the nomination.)
