Neocons love Palin, but there is no way this will ever happen:
I somehow missed John Bolton’s recent efforts to interest Republicans in a possible Bolton presidential run in 2012.
[….]But what if Palin isn’t the nominee? Or what if she is, but cooler heads prevail when she and her crew pick a running mate?
I think it could be Bolton? Why not? His are is foreign policy. The Belrway defines him as “serious.” And we know you suffer no penalty, ever, in national politics for being 100% wrong about anything if you’re coming from the right.
Bolton passes the John Fucking Bolton test (I can’t decide whether or not his brother Michael does yet), but that’s about it. America’s just not ready for that kind of mustache. But it’s worth thinking about if only to read some spoofy brilliance from Hillbuzz (that site is a spoof, right?):
A lot of people brought this up at the Restoring Honor rally, and we’re surprised we never thought of it before…but would Ambassador John Bolton make a good running mate for Governor Sarah Palin in 2012?
The Ambassador sure would make a great attack dog on the campaign trail, against Joe Biden.
We still don’t believe Hillary Clinton would ever agree to replace Biden on the VP ticket, so don’t even go there. The only way Clinton would run as Dr. Utopia’s VP choice is if Biden discovers he has serious health problems that force him to resign in 2011…and Clinton is confirmed as the new Vice President. We think that would be her price for getting on that sinking ship of a ticket, to actually be made Vice President first, then doing what she could to help Dr. Utopia get a second term. We believe she’s smart enough to know Dr. Utopia’s going to lose…but she’d then be able to run in 2016 against President Palin as former Senator, former Secretary of State, former Vice President Hillary Diane Rodham Clinton.
