Senator Septuagenarian's Connecticut VP Choice?

MANIFESTO

(And, no, it's not Senator Sanctimony.) Michael Medved at townhall.com opines that the "one credible female candidate" for the Republican vice president slot is none other than Connecticut's own Board of Education chair governor, M. Jodi Rell.

My initial reaction is that this sounds great: She resigns in order to run, the Republicans lose, and the state no longer has to put up with the governor's simpering ways. However, after further review, I realize that she wouldn't have to resign (cf. Holy Joe in 2000) and that Lt. Governor Michael Fedele (Like his boss, a possessor of no college degree; you'd think that in one of the most highly educated states in the nation, the top two individuals in the executive branch would have diplomas.) seems like no prize.

Oh well. The whole idea is a nice diversion on a lovely Thursday morning. It sure is getting the state's media outlets excited.
