1. I used to hope for John Edwards... |
|
...but I think that's probably dead.
What about Patrick Fitzgerald or David Iglesias?

20. I hope she gets the job |
|
She's a former state AG, a former US Attorney, tough and compassionate.
Her office helped me out when I was sheparding a crime victim's rights bill through the NH legislature. She has long been a leader in the area of victims rights, and her staff was fantastic.

29. I personally would like Tim Kaine but he's expressly ruled it out until 2010 |
|
the Lt. Gov of VA is a Republican so he won't serve until his term is up.

6. I heard it could be Jennifer Granholm too |
|
although I've heard her name for the Supreme Court too. Janet Napolitano is the name I seem to hear the most.

I know she hasn't trained as a lawyer and has no qualifications but I get such a kick out of so many who go into fits at the mention of the word "Clinton".
You'd think this was the Free Republic site.

Alright maybe I haven't heard any serious speculation on him, but I can dream can't I? He would be the best choice.

24. Hi, Dinger, and thank you -- and also thank you for the calls for Franken. |
|
He's by far the superior choice in that race, and Norm needs to be sent packin'.

27. Vincent Bugliosi would kick some ass |
|
Unless...does the AG ever have dealings with the Supreme Court? If so, there would be something of a conflict of interest since Bugliosi wrote that book exposing the sham 2000 decision that led to the nightmare of the last 8 years.
Ha, that would be fun too...appointing Bug to the Supreme Court when the time came to put someone new in there.
I love Vincent Bugliosi and want him in our government.

Pat Fitz? Maybe he could carry on the good work at fathoming out what has been going on for 8 years in the executive branch?

32. Given some of the discussions for SOS |
|
My answer would be I don't want to talk about it yet. The end result is going to be more flamming in the end anyway.
