The One And Only Reason I Would Like Clinton In The Veep Slot

The vice presidential slot has tended to be the attack dog slot. I don’t think Sen. Edwards did a good job of that in 2004 and Joe Lieberman was horrible at it. Al Gore was not bad. I would have to think that the vicious streak the Clinton campaign revels in would be much better directed at the GOP candidate. There are a whole host of negatives to having her on the ticket (a demoralized GOP base would love to have a reason to come vote out Clinton), but fight is not one of them.

    I thought that you were going to say that with her as VP, he’s less likely to be assassinated.

    Actually, I’m happy to have her working her attack dog magic without giving her the eventual VP slot. Who knows what internal bylaws Cheney wrote for his position while he was in it? For all we know, Veep now officially holds more power than the Presidency.

    Or more likely, depending on which conspiracy theorist you hear.

    Funny- I was thinking the same thing to myself the other day- it’s a valid point. Her husband, though he could prove too loose of a cannon for The Big O, ain’t bad at it either.

    Nicey-nice isn’t gonna conquer the GOP 527 ads.
