    It's next to Antartica? Right? I like the cute penguins.

    Excellent point. I hadn't factored that into the equation. Probably pushes us back to when Leno comes on.

    Ace -- I disagree. Alma really has grown as a candidate. He has evolved into stating his positions in laymans terms, yet still leaving the feeling that he is the smartert person in the room.

    He was also outfront on his oppositon to war in Iraq. He will not have to come up with a convuluted revision of his position.

    I like Alma more in a chief of staff role. I want him to run the place and not get bogged down with the meaningless stuff.

    God, I hope you're old enough to vote.

    I've been holding out for a possible bid for Queen. The American people have a real issue with women in government wearing jewelry or furs or really nice shoes...they all end up looking like the secretary in the high school guidance office. Queens, on the other hand, can wear anything they want, AND Boom could probably keep the H2. I think I might wait until we change the system.

    But just in case, I don't smoke, never did drugs, and I destroyed those videotapes. Just a little worried about paying the housekeeper in cash, but maybe I can get her an ambassadorship to keep her quiet.

    No - Alma is a big picture policy guy . If not president then Sec of State.

    I could see Ace as Chief of Staff. He has the knowledge and proper tact.

    Clearly, agate_monkey is jockeying for a cabinet position. Since he works on agate inside, I'm guessing Secretary of the Interior.

    By the way, does that H2 run on ethanol? If so, Boom could have Iowa wrapped up already.

    Old enough that I regret voting for Dubya in the 2000 debacle. (Again, I found my error and made up for it in '04 ... not that it helped much.)

    Besides, we need change in Washington. I imagine The Future wouldn't mind seeing a (fill in the blank with a kick ass foreign shoe store) and a (fill in the blank with a kick ass foreign purse store) in the 1500 or 1700 block of Pennsylvania Avenue.

    And no, no cabinet position for me.

    Boom can be Secretary of Defense. He already has a Hummer so we'll save a few bucks. Plus, he's not afraid to mix it up.

    21 can be in charge of Homeland Security. We need to get a woman in there and straighten that mess out.
