While we're waiting for the VP pick, what about second spouses?
DU has debated about every other VP merit, what about the spouses of potential VP picks? What are they called anyway? Second lady/gents? Second spouse?

She seems both tough and cool. I'm particularly impressed with the math & science initiative she's undertaken.

18. Out here in AZ, a lot of people suspect Napolitano pitches for the other team.
Not that I care, that's just what I hear from people all over the Phoenix area.

Thankfully this rumor hasn't hurt her electability.

30. I liked Janet's response to the question one time
"I'm not gay, I'm not straight, I'm just unattractive."

Janet Napolitano rocks!

33. You mean another team than the Diamondbacks?
Well, whoever she pitches for, I'm sure she's good at the game--she just looks like the type who knows what to do on top of the mound.

17. He is 55 years old, he is twice divorced,
And he lives in a van down by the river.

Just kidding about that last part, but it would be hilarious if Feingold were chosen and that's how he introduced himself.

No wonder they found each other attractive!

31. Gary Sebelius!
Ok so maybe he's not that easy on the eyes but he reminds me of an older Peter Griffin from Family guy-- or maybe I just watch too much TV. Seems like a good guy though!
