Giuliani/Forbes 2008 ticket?
Wouldn't be a bad one.
I would be head over heels ecstatic with that. Finally, then, we might actually get to have Forbes as POTUS.
That said, were I a Giuliani advisor, I would tell him in terms of vote getting, Forbes is going to not be that helpful...especially against Obama.
Let's face it. Substantively, Forbes would demolish Obama in a debate. DEMOLISH. But, the American people would think that Obama demolishes Forbes b/c Obama would look pretty and say some sort of irrelevant, cute remark, or some pathetic one liner about his father, blah, blah, blah. Obama is attractive. Forbest is, well, to put it politely, not.
Still....a Forbest choice by Giuliani would be along the lines of why Bush chose Cheney. He would value his counsel and his ability - which is considerable.
I think VP is out of the question.
I think a financial/treasure or other top post, though, might well be doable.....
(Sadly, Forbes never made it to my state's primary, or I would have voted for him, gladly).
Would be a good ticket; however, it wouldn't bring in any states and that's what VEEPS are supposed to do.
