Would you want the job of VP? 97 senators were asked by "The Hill" staff if they would accept the offer of Vice-President.

A surprising number of them would say, "Thanks, but no thanks." Or so they say!

  • Would I have to supply my own man-sized safe? Also: I had no idea there was a Senator Crapo. (Junior senator, eh? So that would make him the No. 2?)
  • Since all three (okay, 2-and-a-half) remaining candidates are Senators, it's really not very likely any of the other Senators would be asked, and they all know that. They should have asked Governors (except Arnold, he's still not eligible), but that would have required the staff of "The Hill" to wander beyond The Hill.
  • What about Ray Liotta's brother?
  • Also: I had no idea there was a Senator Crapo. Jesus Jumpin' Christ on a Christmas Pogo Stick! I sure wish I didn't! I'm from Idaho.
  • (I think "junior senator" means that, of the two senators from his state, he's been in office the least amount of time. However, the option of having two Senator Crapos is better.) I'll be Vice President! Oh wait... I think I need to be a few years older. Darn.
  • (And by better, I mean funnier.) meredithea for Vice President in 2012!
