It puts him (Warner) in the top three on the stage for 2008.

The choice of the Wellstone family is Mr. Mondale. Mondale said if the Democratic Party would ask him to run, he would absolutely consider that.

While it had a little bit of a rally feel, and they were talking about public policy and public policy issues, that was Senator Wellstone through and through. I mean, he did not talk those issues for politics; he talked these issues for passion.

I want to make it clear to people that we want to make this decision as a Democratic family together, just as Sen. Wellstone would want it to be.
