Would Kerry offer Bush a position in his cabinet? This is absurd. Bush should not be obligated to appoint any Democrat. To the victor belong the spoils.
Apparently Bush is keen to offer John Breaux a cabinet post, as in 2000 I’d expect Breaux to turn him down, even though he’s no longer a senator and Breaux gets on well with Bush by all accounts if Breaux didn’t take it in 2000 after the 2002 Senatorial campaign (which was basically the entire Bush Family and GOP vs. Mary Landrieu with John Breaux backing her up to hilt) I doubt we’ll be seeing Breaux in Bush’s cabinet this time around.
