because they never were meant to actually do anything except look good
standing along side the presidential candidate who wants above all to
make sure they would never say something. Because when they do that's
when the **** hits the fan. Look good but don't talk is all they want
from the VP.

Considering the current VP buffoon, does that mean the Dems don't even
require that he look good? So far, he seems to fill Garner's bucket
only halfway. Maybe less evil than Cheney, though. Maybe.
