Now comes the fun part - who will Obama and McCain pick as their Vice President candidates? Ted Strickland and Kay Bailey Hutchison come on down!

Getting a veep pick right is pretty tough, but I'm gonna take a shot. In order of likelihood:

Obama
1) Ted Strickland
2) Wes Clark
3) Tom Vilsack
4) Michael Bloomberg
5) Jim Webb

McCain
1) Kay Bailey Hutchison
2) Lindsay Graham
3) Charlie Crist
4) Tim Pawlenty
5) Joe Lieberman

Obama has to shore up his "white-guy" base, while taking Ohio from the GOP, and appealing to Christian conservatives. Strickland does all three.

McCain has to try to steal Hillary's female voters, while appealing to right-wing conservatives, and adding a bit of historic flair to his ticket to match Obama's story. Hutchison is an obvious pick.

So there you have it. You heard it here first. Again.

Who's your pick (will be / should be)?
