I think that a moderate governor or Senator from the South who is not a household name is what he needs.

Did you see the polls I posted on the first page? With Edwards factored in, the election right now would appear to be a route in favor of Obama.
I would have loved Warner on the ticket. Like I said, he was my first pick (he would have been my pick for president if he hadn't backed out early on). Other than him, I don't know of any great governors in the south who would be an excellent choice for Obama.
