Bad Gephardt

Kerry is supposed to announce his vice-presidential running mate on Tuesday or so. Today, I heard on ABC News that in a secret face-to-face meeting last night, Kerry may have cemented his selection of Dick Gephardt.

And I'd like to go on the record as saying... bad choice. Really bad choice.

On par with Gore choosing Lieberman. Which was bad. What, Gore thought he needed to shore up his liberal-northeast-jewish base?

Anyway, Gephardt brings what, Labor? Like they are going to vote for Bush. Like the ones who are going to vote for Bush will change their vote because of Gephardt. What has Gephardt shown us that he can do? Lose Presidential Primaries year after year? Preside over the loss of Congress to the Republicans? And this qualifies him to be a boon to the ticket?

Even Vilsack would be a better choice. At least he has a track record of winning close elections.

Arr.
