If Clinton and Biden Switched Jobs
« on: October 26, 2011, 10:12:09 AM »
I can't actually tell if this reporter is being a little tongue in cheek or a little nuts. However, it seems reasonable that if Obama talked Clinton into running as his VP, he would likely get a tremendous boost in his base. On the other hand, if Biden became Secretary of State, I'd immediately grab a shovel and start digging a bomb shelter.

You ain't kiddin'. It would be just like this administration to put old Foot-in-Mouth in charge of foreign relations. Twould be just as prudent as all their other decisions.

At the risk of complimenting a Clinton, she at least limits how far she puts her foot in her mouth.  If Biden had the job I think his foot in mouth gaffes would only be limited by the size of his thigh.

Clinton or Biden?  Biden or Clinton?  Does it really matter any more?  You have Samantha Power and Susan Rice and Hillary's harem-girl making foreign policy.  Biden will never crack that circle, trust me.

Has Clinton done a good job?  I doubt Biden would be worse...or better for that matter.

Has she done a good job, ever?  I say no.  It's all lies and soft-focus and zealotry.

I have no idea if Hillary Clinton has done a good job.  How would you judge such a thing?

The concern is if Obama gets to January and is looking at not getting re-elected, he could do a LBJ.  That would open the door for Hillary and I would prefer to fight the political fight based on the Obama preformance not somebody that would be on the same footing as a Republican candidate.

On the other hand, Biden would look better in a dress.

That isn't saying much.
There are five things, above all else, that make life worth living: a good relationship with God, a good woman, good health, good friends, and a good cigar.

Having watched her ever since her Arkansas Exile days, I'd say that hit the nail on the head.  Maybe toss in some remunerative influence peddling.
