Not so surreal

Last night, I blogged about Kerry asking Hunter S. Thomson to run as his VP. I couldn't figure it out. Must've been tired.

As soon as I woke up this morning, even at 5:15 am, the answer came to me. Imagine you're Kerry. You're worried about getting assassinated after the election. Who can you put only a heartbeat away from the presidency to ensure that even members of the psychopathic, lunatic fringe would think twice before pulling the trigger?

What a shrewd guy.
