Second thoughts

Forget drawing on the experience of party elders, strategists and insiders to pick a vice president. Who knows more about the high-stakes veepstakes than cartoonists? Tom Toles’ recommendation is more DNA than DNC, and it’s safe to say John Trever’s misgivings about the “dream ticket” won’t fit in the overhead compartment. Rob Rogers gave Dubya’s sidekick a swift kick in the side. Now that’s straight talk, well-expressed. Come to think of it ... didn’t Cheney deputize himself to be second banana? There’s a task Hillary Clinton is well prepared to step into on Day One.
