Why Bloomberg, BDG? I’m opposed to any smack of bipartisanship in the VP — so no Hegal and no Bloomberg as far as I’m concerned. Fact is, the Republicans line up behind their dubious leaders — so we have to elect Democrats up and down the line. We can be nicer, include them in our reindeer games (and caucuses) but we have to rule or we won’t accomplish the agenda of the American(sic) people, versus the American(sic) 1%.

For VEEP, I have to go with a non-senator, sadly, because I’d love to see either Dodd or Biden on the ticket. Richardson is the obvious choice — would that represent a slap in the face to the Clinton supporters? I doubt it.

One thing to remember — and one thing that worries me about the irrational anger of some of the Clinton crowd — 15 minutes after Clinton concedes (which will be before the convention) everyone will be smiley and friendly — and the people who claim to feel betrayed now, will feel betrayed by their candidate.

OK, JT — your turn :-)
