Mark Warner Redux

In retrospect, Mark Warner should have been picked to be the VP candidate on the Democratic ticket alongside Obama. He was a very successful businessman. He is a centrist. He ran a state and made it the best managed state in the country and he knows how to reach across the aisle. He “gets” the big economic issues we face as a nation. He is both a leader and a manager and gets things done. He isn’t just a “big talker.” And he would have delivered Virginia for the Democrats and an easy win in the Electoral College for Obama.

Also, in retrospect, McCain should have picked Romney as his VP candidate. Romney is a great financial leader; a great businessman; and knows how to raise monies. And now McCain is being vastly outspent by Obama in the media.

Hindsight is 20/20 but both tickets would have been better served at this point in time with VP candidates who had a more impressive business, economic and governing backgrounds. And we as constituents would have been better served too!
