17. I don't know if Obama would do it, but it's certainly possible--

Richardson or Biden seem like natural choices, but would make her leery. They sometimes make gaffes and stick their feet in their mouths, and whomever she picks will have to withstand almost as much scrutiny as she--Obama's been through the fire, and scandal/embarrassment-wise, he's clean, and also an excellent speech-maker and debater. He wouldn't let her down or stumble in any significant way, so he's in the running, I'll bet. Her top criteria will probably be: professionalism, competence, and a low-key but safe presence on the trail.
