I've turned down programming contracts because I know I wouldn't do a great job for the person hiring me, and would basically be stealing money from them for shoddy work. I'd like to think if someone could realize they would not be ready to perform the task of Vice-President of the United States they would turn it down also, so as not to screw over an entire country, instead of one company.
Yes, please do anally examine Obama and Biden also, they certainly deserve it. As well as McCain and Palin. All them need anal examination.
I certainly do hold it against her that she said "yes". It's not like this is a secretary office job. The job position is Vice President of the United States of America. A powerful and demanding office, if ever there was one. There is no shame in not being ready or qualified to accept the position. And if you do accept the position.... prepare for anal probing in every aspect of your life, and prepare for detailed critisism of every word you ever say or every action you ever make.
