“A warm bucket of spit.”

John Nance Garner once said the Vice President’s job wasn’t worth a warm bucket of spit. I’m not so sure about that.

As Barack Obama inches closer to the Democratic nomination for President, I have to think about the future. A black man, an African-American in the White House may present some unexpected opportunities.

After all, his health care agenda is my health care agenda. Obama is pro labor. I’m pro labor. He wants us out of Iraq. I want us out of Iraq. Besides the prestige, travel benefits, and influence in the Senate, there is much that a woman Vice President can do for the country.

Even better is that whole ‘heartbeat’ thing. Yes, Obama is a young man, but as I understand it, rightwingers are good shots.

I need to remember not to stand too close when he gives a speech.
