What about Zell Miller. Like Liebermann he would appeal to dissafected Hillary supporters (in fact, he would probably appeal to a greater number), unlike Lieberman he has executive experience (8 years as Governor), he is a former Marine and would be a good counterweight to Jim Webb (who a lot of people are pushing for Obama to pick). Also, while Miller would hardly energize conservatives, he would probably antagonize the Republican base a lot less than picking Liebermann would since he is closer to the Republican party on cultural and social issues.
