How to Elect GWB to a Third Term in One Easy Step

Okay, the title is an exaggeration, since there would be the little matter of a Constitutional Ammendment. But still, the surest way to ensure a GOP victory in 2008 would be to run Albert Gore for the White House again.

Our source--a top aide in the previous Bush administration--is planning meetings with Gore's team to push an early entry while Clinton runs for re-election in New York. It doesn't end there: The Gorebots want him to pick Sen. Barack Obama, the youthful Illinois African-American, as his No. 2.

This would be wonderful fodder for SNL writers, especially those who wrote the wonderful "lockbox" skits of 2000. But it would hardly be the way to run a successful candidate. Why not Obama for the #1 spot instead?
