As I've said in other lj's, this is the best pick for Hillary. Clinton doesn't have to be "historic" anymore, and can run on her merits, which are considerable. She will still be in the limelight, far more than Biden, in comparison to Palin, and she will shine. In any debate, whether direct or conducted via back and forth speechifying, Hillary will mop the floor with her.
This is a Jack Kemp pick, and completely good news for Obama and the Democrats. McCain is solidifying his base of the 27% of ultra-right wingers who think Bush is too far to the left.
