Interesting take on Obama's "Applachia problem." Some of the end of this piece is a bit of a stretch, I don't think one can equate the current climate as an analogy to John Adams and John Q. Adams v. Andrew Jackson, but, you get the idea. A sensitive lot, like the Scots, methinks.

My take? I'd say Jim Webb would be high on the veepstakes list, assuming he'd accept.
