Lieberman and Edwards: Twice Vice?

Any predictions I make will be proven wrong before I even post them. So consider these idle speculations, not predictions.

If McCain picks Lieberman (in Yiddish, Loybermoin) as his Vice, he nullifies Obama's "post-partisan" image. McCain also sheds some of the Bush-Repug baggage and reaches out to independents and disaffected Hillary voters- Obama's territory. According to some other blogs, the Jewish vote might flee (although I'm not convinced because of the Iraq/Rumsfeld/warmonger issue), and this could impact Florida and Pennsylvania in the general election. McCain will still have to campaign with his right-wing friends to try to get out that vote that is suspicious of him.

If Obama picks Edwards, he may try to make a play in Southern states, focus more on working class economic issues, and try to exploit McCain's ties to lobbyists and corporations. Some people think that Edwards would make a much better Attorney General, and that he wouldn't want to run for Vice again. The other potential pick for VP that I thought was interesting is Claire McCaskill, Senator from Missouri. This would be an overture to the women's vote, and MO is a swing state in the middle of red territory. But will the Hillary backers be able to stomach a placebo?

(In case you were wondering, Nader already picked Matt Gonzalez as his running mate, but I'm not sure who Cynthia McKinney (running for the Green Party) picked)
