Why Debbie Wasserman-Schultz Is Wrong

Ben Smith at Politico reports that FL Congresswoman Debbie Wasserman-Schultz has suggested that Congressional supporters of Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton should write a joint letter to Senator Obama arm-twisting him to put her on a joint ticket as Vice President. Writes Ben Smith:

Members of Congress who support Clinton are weighing a joint letter to Senator Barack Obama pressing him to put Clinton on the ticket, a congressional aide confirmed.
Congresswoman Debbie Wasserman-Schultz of Florida has suggested the letter, which would aim to represent the voices of female members of congress and those from swing states and key demographic groups.

This only hours after the Democratic Party nominee emerged, with barely enough time to contemplate the historic threshold that he just crossed.

I occasionally play soccer. That's the sport that I grew up with and the only one, perhaps, that I truly understand. Where I grew up we call it football. Soccer is a marathon sport that taxes both brain and brawn and, because of its almost chess-like nature, most enthusiasts relate it to mathematics. So much so that one of my favorite players as a youth was in fact nick-named "Mathematical".
