Webb For Obama Veep?
Many readers like the idea. A typical email:
Makes a ton of sense,
subject to the caveat (is he a loose cannon?) that you noted. He
reinforces Obama's "Iraq" and "change" messages; has national security
cred (was Reagan's Navy Secretary) without being an old insider;
clearly has the testicular fortitude to be an attack-dog when
necessary, yet (as a former Republican) can claim to be post-partisan;
has (had?) a son in Iraq just like McCain; was a Vietnam hero like
McCain; and may even be able to reach the Appalachian Scots-Irish
demographic that Obama has had so much trouble winning. And, of
course, he could help in Virginia, a state that already looks promising
for Obama.
