Not Who I Would Have Picked
Yesterday some damn fool asked Mike Pence which vice president he wants to be most like. He had 47 choices and he picked ….
GOP vice presidential candidate Mike Pence said his role model for the number two spot is the last Republican to hold the job — Dick Cheney.
“I frankly hold Dick Cheney in really high regard in his role as vice president and as an American,” Pence said on ABC’s “This Week.”
Pence said that, like Cheney, he hoped to be “a very active vice president.”
Okay, Mike, if you think that Donald Trump is even going to invite you to the White House after he’s elected, you ain’t got your tray in the full upright and locked position.
Also, how soon we forget …
When Vice President Dick Cheney left office, his approval rating stood at a staggeringly low 13 percent. Few political figures in history have been so reviled.
So, what you’re shooting for is a lonely man with a 13% approval rating. I think you already have that covered, Mike.
Thanks to everybody for the heads up.
