2. If there ever was an idiot for being Vice President he was it and when
George H. Bush picked him as his running mate the media and even some rethugs went CRAZY!!!! I remember when the story broke about Bush picking this guy I was in my car driving and when the news said Dan Quayle over the radio I said who the fuck is this guy.I though Bush would loose the election for picking this novice but I was wrong. The media torn Quayle a new ass whole but it didn't matter Bush still won just goes to show VP picks mean nothing

5. A VP candidate is only helpful when they can be attack dogs. Thats the best way they can help
Thats why I'm not a fan of guys like Edwards or Clark being VP. They just don't fit that bad ass attack dog

6. wrong
They can be very helpful. They can be hurtful. They can have little effect.

One example of a dork VP doesn't prove anything - and remember, they WON in '88.
