A claim that support is growing for OH Governor Ted Strickland to be Obama's VP:

Real Clear Politics
Support is growing in Democratic ranks for Ohio Gov. Ted Strickland as vice president. He would bring to the ticket maturity (66 years old), experience (six terms in Congress) and moderation (rated "A" by the National Rifle Association). He is very popular in Ohio, a state Republicans must carry to elect a president.

He's almost as old as McCain. I think that would make Obama seem even younger. I think they should pick someone a bit younger for VP.

Bush Senior and Nixon had the right idea: pick a VP that no one anywhere wants in their darkest nightmares as POTUS.
Fortunately Nixon was outflanked on that one.

Bush Junior did a pretty good job, too. It was certainly one of the factors that kept impeachment off the table.
“There, peeping among the cloud-wrack above a dark tor high up in the mountains, Sam saw a white star twinkle for a while. The beauty of it smote his heart, as he looked up out of the forsaken land, and hope returned to him. For like a shaft, clear and cold, the thought pierced him that in the end the Shadow was only a small and passing thing: there was light and high beauty for ever beyond its reach.”
― J.R.R. Tolkien, The Return of the King

My grandfather served in the Navy with her dad. Najeeb Halaby was a Navy test pilot in WWII, and so was my grandad. I don't think Lisa was born until well after that-- early 1950's, maybe? But my grandad thought a lot of Najeeb, and kept in touch with him for a long time after their Navy days.
