Kaine is so odd. She only picked him because he speaks Spanish. But, many of the Hispanics are Catholics who are very pro life, and cannot accept his choice.

Actually she picked Kaine because she thinks she got a Twofer with him. One you already pointed out he speaks Spanish (with a bad accent I am told! Anyway big deal he is an Anglo who speakers Spanish. So what?) but the second reason is he is a fire brake for Virginia. That's an odd pick because he is not that popular here. he is sort of a “meh” guy to the average Virginian. A better Rat pick for retaining Virginia would have been Warner. He is far more popular in Virginia. (Why I don't know!) but she would have had to give up the Spanish speaking aspect. I expected her to fully exploit the Latino immigrant angle and pick one of the Castro brothers. One is the mayor of San Antonio & I think the other is a Congresscritter.
