Hillary should run for governor of New York
She seems to want an executive position so I don't think vp would be her cup of tea. Spitz kicked ass as AG of NY, but he's having a little trouble as governor. I think Obama should appoint him as AG (Some Edwards fans may not like this, but I'm not sure Edwards would accept it anyway), Hillary should run for governor in the special election to replace Spitzer and then RFK can get her senate seat. Realistically none of this is probably going to happen, but in theory I think it would be a good arrangement.

2. If she doesn't run a better campaign than she has for pres
she won't be elected dogcatcher of bumfuck arkansas.

She needs to hire Monica Lewinsky to keep Bill occupied.

17. They're just handing out consolation prizes for our hypothetical votes come November.
They'd be against anything Hillary does in the future.

Sorta like the, we need a woman President, just not Hillary.

They would find an excuse for any woman running for the office.

8. Spitzer is going to run for re-election.
And... Suozzi would make a fantastic governor. Also, there's rumors about RFK Jr.

16. Suozzi would never have put himself in the position Spitzer is in.
I really hope he can turn it around.

12. No thank you!
Spitzer is great because he goes after corporations. He's had some trouble as governor but I'm still a much bigger fan of his than Clinton.

15. Somewhat Premature!
Need I remind you that the nomination process has not yet been completed. Perhaps after June when the nominee is decided these kinds of questions could be explored depending on who is selected and who isn't.

21. I could go for this.
I wouldn't mind seeing how she handles being Governor.

I'm sure she would get along very well with Wall Street. Maybe fix up a few things because it sure seems to be a mess right now.
