Bill Kristol on "The Democrats' Glass Ceiling"

After comparing the qualifications of Hillary and Biden and concluding that Hillary is at least as qualified, Kristol asks:

Will the Democratic party, which is committed (to say the least) to gender equity, and which in fact has a 50 percent quota for female delegates, accept Obama’s imposition of a glass ceiling at its convention?

A modest suggestion to my justifiably outraged Democratic friends: Hillary’s name should be placed in nomination not for the presidency (Obama won that more or less fair and square)--but for the vice presidency. It would be an interesting roll call vote.


Seems like the perfect strategy to me.

I previously pointed out the Dem's duplicitousnes on issues of race and gender here.
