Interesting that he is traveling to Iraq with these two.  Both would make his ticket a lot more credible.  I know that the far right will bash Hagel as being a conservative Democrat and the far left will back Reed as being a liberal Republican, but this certainly makes you wonder.  Would Obama reach across party lines?  Will Obama take someone from a non-swing state?

I have to think that if Obama picked Hagel that McCain may reach out to Lieberman.  Otherwise I think McCain has his mind made up.  It is a matter of time before he announces that Crist from Florida will be his running mate.  What a way to appeal to the Christian right.....Crist be with him.  LOL!!
