Dean for HHS?

Who thinks Howard Dean would make a great HSS secretary? I think so. I wonder if he doesn't win the nomination, and he might, if he would accept a position in another administration. I doubt it, but it's too bad because he would be a great asset.

Of course, I wonder the same about the other candidates. Would Clark be SecDef in a Dean Administration? Everyone says Edwards is angling to be on the ticket as the VP, and maybe he is. He could definately use the political capital that 4 years as veep could provide. Carol Moseley Braun clearly has her head screwed on right and her heart in the right place. America just is not ready for anything but another white male in the Oval Office. She'd make a great Secretary of the Interior though. Other than Edwards, none of the current congressmen look likely the do anything but return to their consituencies after the primary.

It's clear that we need some change in this country. Hopefully this election will be faithful to history and a president elected when losing the pooluar vote will be sent out on his keister when seeking relection. Nothing would make me happier than to see W give a concession speech come November.

I do believe that white Democratic woman could be elected in 2004. Not necessarily Hillary! But just because of the way the Republicans have given themselves away to harbor racists and sexists in their party, there's a good chance that a Democrat woman could get Republican women to cross over in solidarity. That wouldn't work every time, but it would have to happen the first time a woman got elected President.

If Clark isn't involved in the administration in 2004, he WILL be the president in 2008. He's that good a leader. And yet I may not vote for him this time. Sometimes you just have to ride the wave....
