Subject: BS: New speculations on VP and cabinet
Well, I think it is going to Be Kaine...he is fine as are the others being named, except for one. I am personally for Sebelius, and I bet that she would be the one Obama would most like to work with, but there are other considerations. I wouldn't be surprised if she had a cabinet post...I heard Rendell talkinga bout transportation..I want a really good transportation bully almost, and he might be the one...I don't know his qualifications in that area but he sounded knowledgeable. I want a train expert especially, and I want someone who knows how to move people and move material in case of a disaster, which I believe is an appalling problem we have that seems to constnatly overwhelm us. I also want some of our perfectly good stuff saved from landfills and sent either overseas or to economically deprived areas of our country for use or refurbishing or stripping for materials and components.
Energy..very important...I don't know who.
Agriculture..very important..perhaps Schweitzer of Montana.
Health...CLinton
..I know they probably have switched cabinets around when I wasn't looking...HUD??? Someone said Dodd..fine with me.
Interior..they are saying Robert Kennedy. I don't have a strong opinion.
State..No idea. I think it will be Richardson.
AG: John Edwards is involved perhaps in a problem that could affect him being chosen, if true..he would be my first choice.
THings I do not understand..why people are suggesting Hagel for VP. He is a republican. Put him in the cabinet but not VP for democrats. Caroline Kennedy for VP??? What??????? that makes no sense at all and arn't we trying to get away from Dynasties??? I actually can see her on Supreme COurt, although I am not sure she meets any qualifications.
They say MacGaskill?? for Treasury or accounting or whatever. I don't have an opinion.
Oh yes, my favorite..General HOnore for Fema or something similar. mg
