How Much Worse It Could Have Been

While I'm not thrilled with Obama's possible cabinet picks, McCain's would have been much worse. Mike Huckabee running Health and Human Services??? Whew, what we just missed!

Here is a list of McCain's possible cabinet picks, had he won the Presidency:

* Sen. Joe Lieberman, I-Conn., in a prominent job, possibly even secretary of state. (I'm watching Lieberman's shaky position now. No telling where that's going to go.)

* Former Sen. Fred Thompson, R-Tenn., as attorney general. (He played a judge on Law and Order, so we know he could have done this job.)

* Former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani as homeland security secretary. (9/11, all the time!!)

* Former Sen. Phil Gramm of Texas as treasury secretary. (Ick...)

* Former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee as health and human services secretary. (Yikes!!!)

I guess as far as Obama's cabinet goes, it's just wait-and-see...
