I'm thinking Russ Feingold and Sheila Jackson-Lee.

2. Barney Frank as speaker, Feingold would be great as Senate leader.

5. My mother. she would totally kick ass.
No one fucks with her. We'd be in the middle of impeachment hearings right now. She might have even waterboarded the truth out of Alberto and Rove by now.

8. I had to stop her from pushing Rumsfield into the Chesapeake Bay once. I wish I hadn't
but she's about to retire...she needs her pension. She's decieiving because she would have been smiling at them the whole time.

I chronicled that encounter here.
