- only Democrats will be listed due to Arizona Republicans being ineligible.
Arizona Democrats
Janet Napolitano: Gov, Ranking: 7: There are a lot of positives for Napolitano she is a highly popular governor from a right leaning state and she could help obama with woman. The only real downside is that she could not bring in her home state.
Ed Pastor: Rep AZ-4, Ranking: 4, A suprise pick and a boring pick. Pastor has a fairly liberal voting record but only helps the ticket by not hurting it.
Harry Mitchell: Rep AZ-5, Ranking: 3, Although Mitchell is old (67) he is only a one term congressman. Mitchell also represents a Republican leaning district and his selection could give the seat back to the Republicans.
Raul Grijalva: Rep AZ-7, Ranking: 2, Grijalva is the Kucinich of the Southwest. He is especialy known for his strongly pro-imigration views which may help with hispanics, but could hurt in other groups.
Gabrielle Giffords: Rep AZ-8, Ranking: 2, Gifforts took the swing seat in 2006 and is barly eligable to serve ay vp being only 38. Inexpirence and handing her seat back over to the GOP takes her out of the running.
