============================
Actually, it wouldn't surprise me to see the Democrats put someone like Jim
Webb, the former Navy Secretary in the Reagan administration who has a son
serving in Iraq, on the ticket - whether it's one headed by Clinton or
Obama - to counter commander-in-chief McCain should the latter win the
Republican nomination. Webb would also likely be a popular choice with the
party ranks for his tough public "attitude" towards Bush and his
Edwards-like populist sentiments.
