non-serious gender dynamics poll I was in a discussion last night with the person I do business with and his office manager. He cl 55 s that Hillary Clinton will eventually agree to be Barak Obama's vice president for the good of the party. His office manager cl 55 s Obama will run with either Edwards or Gore. She suggested the wager that if he is right she will come to work in a Hooters T shirt and if she is right he will come to work in orange Hooters shorts. Although this deal sounds worse for him he agreed. Because Hooters does not make men's shorts (?!?) I plan to iron on a Hooters decal on men's shorts. Which shorts would you pick for a person who is kind of your boss and generally nice but foolish enough to agree to this wager? Would you 55 for gender payback? (Bear in mind the boss just served the office manager dumplings he cooked and fetched soy sauce for her.) A: Shorts similar to the ones the thousands of women who work for Hooters are actually forced to wear B: Dickies

non answer My prediction: neither of them will win. I don't think Obama will ask HRC. Too much bad blood. Gore wouldn't do it - he's focused on one issue only - maybe he'll be secretary of energy or environment or something. And Edwards will be Attorney General.

I don't want to mess up my trying to be funny poll with a serious prediction of doom but a sick feeling in the pit of my stomach is predicting McCain.

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah! Ok, we won't go there. Sorry to dampen the fun. :(

I would like to see Obama have Richards as Secretary of State.

richardson?

Good choice. Richardson would be great. And a likely choice.

those shorts remind me of that post x/x sketch on SNL with Will Ferrell in the hideously short, American 32 running shorts.

Clinton's ego would never allow her to accept being VP. It's president or nothing.

I would even go as far to say that she would rather take down the whole democratic party than lose the nomination, which is kind of the way she's been playing it lately. My biggest regret is that I voted for her in the CA primary. I wish to god I could take back my vote!

it certainly seems that way.

I don't know about that. I think she has said she'd consider a Clinton/Obama ticket but she's never said she would consider VP. At least as far as I can re. And still:

your logic would apply if clinton agreed with your logic. but as bean's article points out, she's clearly not looking to care about strengthening the party at this point in time. and strengthening the party is what is needed for the good of our country, otherwise we'll have four more years of disgustingness.

Ack! That first pair brought back horrible memories. At my first library job, there was an old guy (I'm talking Methusalah's older brother here), who'd come in everyday wearing a pair of those. And he had horrible chicken legs. Bleck. If he's a semi-boss, I'd let him keep some of his dignity. Those Dickies are a hideous enough color, it should cause some embarrassment from losing the bet.

for the sake of everyone I would pick the longer shorts and iron a Hooters logo over each butt cheek.

Hooters has boxer shorts just sew the front .......and here is the link How do I know this....well I have a college age son and I have done his laundry.

I wouldn't care to see *anything* hanging out of those tiny shorts. He's big enough to take the challenge, cut him a break with longer shorts.
