Veepstakes Week: The Legend Of The Sarah Palin Cruise Ship (2007)

  • Summary

  • Welcome to Veepstakes Week! From time to time this election year, we're going to do some special series that highlight the rhythm of an election cycle. This week, we are looking at the process of speculating, vetting, and selecting a Vice Presidential pick.
