Sounds like you agree with my shadow govt idea like they have in the UK. Like Romney should have already had a cabinet announced in the summer and campaigned with them as a team. For some reason only the P and VP run together in the US.

If he had a full cabinet put together and ran so people knew the entire new administration I think that would have helped.

It would be a good idea for 2016./

Sort of. I wasn't suggesting running with a Cabinet, only other candidates to elected office. I wasn't sure if there are legal considerations to naming cabinet positions (quid pro quo?), or if it was just more political fodder for the opposition to use.

Here's an interesting article on the topic, which includes your phrase "shadow" cabinet.
