We present measurements of B meson decays to the final states 
omegaK*, omegarho, and omega f_0, where K* indicates a
spin 0, 1, or 2 strange meson.  The data sample corresponds
to 465x10^6 BBbar pairs collected with the BABAR detector 
at the PEP-II e+e- collider at SLAC.  B meson decays involving 
vector-scalar, vector-vector, and vector-tensor final states are analyzed;
the latter two shed new light on the polarization of these final states.
We measure the branching fractions for nine of these decays; five are
observed for the first time.  For most decays we also measure the charge 
asymmetry and, where relevant, the longitudinal polarization f_L.
