Capitol View

Who's it going to be? Everybody knows nobody votes for VP!

Posted at 10:06 AM on August 8, 2008 by Tom Scheck

Politico's James Kotecki (who is becoming comedy relief during the daily grind) has a VP rap.

Among the favorite lines:

"When they going to choose? Who's it going to be? Everybody knows nobody votes for VP!"

"A white guy may be boring but it might be smart because too much change could rip this country apart!"

"Tim Pawlenty's odds are far from remote or Joe Lieberman can bring the Jewish vote."


"That's all the Veepstakes that needs to be said...

...And if they don't pick soon I'm going to wish I was dead!"

Watch the full rap here:
