I think Obama should just line all of the possible Veeps up in a room..
invite the media, and do a Columbo thing where he gradually elminates them one by one by powers of deduction...that would be awesome.

5. How about going the Big Brother 10 route -- put them in a house together
and have them vote each other out until there are three left. And then give them an endurance and mental challenge and see who comes out on top.

13. VP Rennie -- At least the cabinet would have AMAZING HAIRCUTS!!!
Edited on Fri Aug-22-08 01:47 PM by emulatorloo
Have you noticed how great the houseguest's hair is this season? I want her to do my hair.

She would certainly enliven cabinet meeting too.

17. OMFG!!!!
Not really.

Havent really been watching. The last season to really catch my attention was season 6. Since then the show has gone downhill for me.

The houseguests are too boring this year.

23. Make them compete on Hurl.
You know, that show where they feed a bunch of young people a big pile of food and put them on vomit rides? Winner gets to be Veep.

Why? "Intestinal fortitude".
