Beyond that, I am truly concerned about whether the organized anti-Clinton crowd is going to go after Gore, if they succeed in getting rid of Clinton.
I raised this concern in another, now moribund thread, pointing out who was next in line. I was assured by mrknowitall that Gore's choice as VP would be speedily confirmed, since Gore has all these friends on the hill. Had to chuckle at that one, given how many Clinton nominations of much lesser import have been bottled up in the Senate, by impartial guys like Jesse Helms. If William Weld, a pretty well liked, Libertarian-leaning Republican, couldn't make it as ambassador to Mexico, who might be acceptable as a Gore VP?
Somehow, the "unknowable" line mrknowitall gave to my proposal that all congressional candidates make known their views on the Starr report and its merits as impeachable offenses didn't seem to apply in this other context. Funny, that.
Cheers, Dan. |
