Problem. Cabinet positions are dead end roads to the White House. Too many ambitious names on that last. Some of those folks like Romney and Huckabee won’t be looking for cabinet jobs. others like U.S. Senators won’t want to give up their power in the Senate for a cabinet job. Cabinet jobs are good building blocks if you want to run for Gov , Sen or VP
later.
Your observation may have merit, but it misses the larger point: the ways in which a Rat administration would differ from a Republican administration.
Regardless that these particular individuals might not serve, people like them (generally with their views) will be the ones tapped for a Republican administration.
Individuals such as John Kerry, John Murtha, Joe Biden, Al Gore (if he’s not the VP), Sheila Jackson Lee, Charlie Rangel, Flubba and Hildy Clintoon, the Kennedys, Jamie Gorelick-—people LIKE them, if not they themselves, will end up in positions of great power, including possibly as Supreme Court Justices, in a Rat administration.
Don’t miss the forest for the trees here!
