Hey, how about Martha Stewart in 2008?

Poll question: Hey, how about Martha Stewart in 2008?

I'm not being entirely facetious here. I've come to respect the woman enormously throughout her recent martyrdom (and I wasn't a former fan). If not for president, vice president? If neither of these then I suggest Secretary of the Interior! GOOOO MARTHA!!!

1. Considering the number of convicted criminals in the Bush camp

They really couldn't say much against Martha.

Having said that, I don't really believe she's qualified.

2. Has she ever mentioned an interest in politics?

We have plenty of very fine Democratic politicians.

3. She's been a strong contributor to the Dem Party.

I don't know if she'd be interested. I just think if she were she might be an asset, having gone through the Repuke mill and all. Probably has a few insights and definitely axes to grind. Nothing like martyrdom to make one a die hard activist.

7. Perhaps she wouldn't want to take the HUGE cut in pay. NT

4. When does she get out?

Anyone know when she gets released? Her first TV exposure should be very interesting. I'll bet she gets a multi-million dollar book deal.

5. Seems like she's about half way through, but it may be more.

I wish her the best.

8. She gets out in March and then has some house arrest time left.

6. she's donated quite a bit to our side

too bad that resource has been effectively killed. I doubt any candidate would accept a donation for at least 10 years.
