Major tip o’ the sombrero to one of my compadres for passing along this juicy rumor:
Carper as a possibility to replace Napolitano as Secretary of Homeland Security, and the Beaudhisattva to the Senate. Major upgrade for our delegation, major downgrade to the Cabinet.
Although, as a doddering fool, Carper would be ideally suited to cast a blank stare and blind eye towards our uber-spying apparatus.
