What do you think of a Dean/Reid ticket?
Has Reid endorsed a candidate yet?

Reid seems like an all around good guy and a straight shooter. He has 17 years of experience from the senate and comes from a mid western state. He has an A-rating from the NRA, something which can be seen as both good and bad depending on one's perspective.

2. what i want to see
is the dems develop a strategy that frees them from dependant thinking around the south.
one is chained to a line of thinking as long as one believes in it.
if an east coast/mid-western or western team does the trick -- then i'm for it.
but something new -- fresh, that can be communicated to america as a whole.
