Eagle-eyed reader (and Iraq War veteran) JB Smith emails that if the Republicans feel it necessary to counter Obama’s master stroke of tapping Joe Biden as vice-president, there’s only one serious option – Trent Lott. Think of it. Both have comical pseudo-hair. Both gravitate to the career-ruining gaffe. Both talk too much. Scratch that – both talk way too much. And both have been around Washington since the earth cooled (although it feels like longer). Fortunately, it doesn’t appear the McCain campaign should have any reason to feel the need to counter Joe Biden. Bad news for Trent Lott, good news for the rest of us.
