CBS' Charlie Rose asked Clinton about both of them.

Rose: Kaine, have you been with him in Virginia? He says he's too boring.

Clinton: (Laugh) And I love that about him. He's never lost an election. He was a world-class mayor, governor and senator.

Rose: Hickenlooper, the governor of Colorado?

Clinton: First class.

Rose: Being vetted; both of these have been vetted?

Clinton: Well, I'm not … confirming. But I have a great and high regard for these two people.
