If Elizabeth continues to play the moping wallflower, I'll agree with your assessment. If she starts to talk and work the crowd, I'm back to my original lineup. All you've got to do is have the wicked witch and my ole southern gal side by side, listen to them speak, watch them dance, and poor old Hillary won't know what hit her.
Elizabeth Dole was either too incompentent or too compromised to EVER even mention the fact one Bill Clinton had been definitively proven to have been the source for tainted prison plasma which infected countless recipients of various blood derivatives fractionated in Canada.
She sat on the story through two election cycles, leaving the party to prattle about bimbo eruptions instead of the bad blood which might have blown a hole in one of his most shrill constituencies ... the Log Cabin sorts the GOP's been courting in earnest since 2000.
No Senators at the top of the ticket...not a good track record.
