I have heard that the diminutive Gina! was angling to get on the Clinton Short List as Veep. Agitated Press (AP) recently reported that Gina! planned on renaming Waterplace Park into Whitewater Place so as to make Clinton feel at home. So that might be a clue. Haven't read Ted Nesi yet but I bet there's something underfoot going on in this regard. But, will Gina! pass the Rocky Point test of "you must be this tall?"

I know Gina Raimondo's PR machine was able to generate national press for her, but I don't see her being a viable VP pick given what few successes she's had to date. It seems to me she hasn't really rolled up her sleeves, got to work, and earned the slot. Unless, of course, the bench of the D's is just so depleted there's nobody else to send in.

She's jockeying for the majors when she hasn't paid her dues in the minors.

The Democratic Party is overstocked with mental midgets as it is!

If she was on the VP list, that evaporated after yesterday's primaries. More likely they threw her a bone by putting her name out there, like they did for Sheldon Whitehouse saying he was a possible Supreme Court nominee. No RI'er believed that for a second.

^ Yeah, I guess the Dems sold her short. No loss, really, it's bad enough to have Frau Clinton manning the battlements for Goldman Sachs. I suspect Clinton won't be back anytime soon and hopefully that exile includes her husband -- I mean, it costs money to shelter the farm animals when he's aproweling.
