I'm actually thinking his choice might have just cost him the election. He would have got the votes from the people who never wanted to see a woman or a black man as president. I'm sure he'll get some of the womens votes just because his vp would be a woman though.

He can't go after Obama's lack of experience hard core anymore since she's young and only 2 years as governor. Dems can throw back how old he is, and how she might have to take over his presidency.
She sure is hot though.
