NCAA brackets are always loads of fun - the perfect way to break gambling laws and feel good about it. (Back in the day, Justice Rehnquist ran the Supreme Court tourney out of his chambers.) Now, for political junkies, comes Congressional Quarterly's VP Madness (GOP Edition) - a bracket where voters get to pick preferred VP candidates from suggested pairs. No gambling here, just votes, but it's still gets your juices flowing. They start with 32 possibilities, and Round 1 offers some intriguing choices, including:
Sergeant Hagel v. Secretary Rice (I'm picking Rice - and saving Hagel for Obama's ticket)
Joe Lieberman v. Jeb Bush (did one of them have to drop out this early?)
JC Watts v. Charlie Crist (this mismatch really does remind me of the NCAA first round)
