I suspect that Obama went to two or three of the top picks...and they declined...either with a history they didn’t want uncovered or playing second fiddle to Obama. As for Kaine...he is a virtual unknown throughout the south, and this would not gain a single point. I doubt that this would help in carrying Virginia. If you put Kaine up against Mitt Romney....Romney wins hands down on debate talents.
Oh geez...hadn't even thought of that...
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!
Put Kaine up against Pawlenty and you're going to have to have a big sign behind each man identifying which one is which.
