Better to combine departments of Energy, Interior and EPA into one smaller Department and put Palin in charge of it.
Then as VP choose another Conservative. Anybody would be better than Biden or Hillary.
If Mitt does that, I'll think about supporting him.
VP is more important than a secon-tier cabinet position and there’s a history of VP’s taking on a special area or portfolio of focus.
As VP she could oversee broad changes in energy policy AND genuine cross-government cost cutting, for example.
Unfortunately, Romney would never pick her.
Combining those departments is an excellent idea and Palin would be a great choice to run it.
