Kerry Cabinet: Spitzer AG, RFK Jr. Dir EPA or INTERIOR, Secy of State: ?
If Kerry wins (and there is still a long way to go), for fun, what would a Kerry cabinet look like?

Spitzer and RFK Jr. will definitely be appointed and kick ass, IMHO!


IMAGINE PRESIDENT KERRY'S CABINET!!

1. I don't know about Eliot Spitzer. . .he may have other plans. . .
like the governorship of New York.

And we need someone like him as governor- unlike that friggin ornament Pataki (aka Governor Potato-Head)


:kick:

3. Spitzer would be AG in 2005 and 2006 and then become NY Governor in 2007!
Arrest all those Ken Lays and the Boys and then build the country back up!

4. Nah, 2006 is Cumo's turn to try
and I think Spitzer would rather jump to AG, and then come down and be governor if need be. That would be great publicity for him

8. Spitzer would LOVE to be AG
I'm sure he would take it! Then he gets to go after the really big fish and make everyone toe the line!

6. last interview i saw w/ RFK Jr. he said he wanted to stay out of politics
for the time being.

I'm not sure how old the interview was, but I remember him saying that he enjoyed his legal practice, and enjoyed acting closer to the people and places that are being affected by Environmental problems.

He'd be great though! He is one of the greatest proponents of a healthy environmental policy!

7. Doubt he would turn down the chance to be
EPA director or Secy of the Interior Dept. He doesn't have to run in a campaign and risk assassination pressing the flesh, remember.

12. During my time in DC for my internship
I remember being told that RFK Jr. was not particularly well respected. But that was just word of mouth, so I have no idea.

14. Katherine Harris will change parties
and be appointed ambassador to Chad.

:silly:

I know this sounds ridiculous, but have you noticed the movement from the Bush administration to Kerry's campaign? Granted these are career politicians, but I expect to see more as the true believers close ranks.
