2008 Bored Veepstakes

[NellyLunatic1980]

So now that we know that the presidential race will be between Barack Obama and John McCain, it's time to play armchair pundit on who will be the vice presidential candidates.

To participate, simply write down two lists of your top ten names--Obama's ten likely names and McCain's ten likely names. Number each list 1-10, with #1 being your most likely pick. Whoever's right picks rank highest will win.

Lists will be accepted until one of the vice presidential names is leaked by either campaign.

My lists:

Obama's veeps
1. Ed Rendell (PA Gov.)
2. Hillary Clinton (NY Sen.)
3. Bill Richardson (NM Gov.)
4. Kathleen Sebelius (KS Gov.)
5. Jim Webb (VA Sen.)
6. Mike Easley (NC Gov.)
7. Evan Bayh (IN Sen.)
8. Ted Strickland (OH Gov.)
9. Phil Bredesen (TN Gov.)
10. Chuck Hagel (NE Sen.)

McCain's veeps
1. Charlie Crist (FL Gov.)
2. Willard Mitt Romney (former MA Gov.)
3. Tim Pawlenty (MN Gov.)
4. Bobby Jindal (LA Gov.)
5. Mike Huckabee (former AR Gov.)
6. Carly Fiorina (former Hewlett-Packard CEO)
7. Rudy Giuliani (mayor of 9/11)
8. Rick Santorum (former PA Sen.)
9. Joe Lieberman (CT Sen.)
10. Jeb Bush (former FL Gov.)

I'd participate, but you've already taken both my lists. I think Richardson should be #1 on the Demo list.
