In the "Amen to that" column
Gephardt supporters hope he'll play role in Kerry White House
In the hopeful event of a Kerry victory, I'd expect Gephardt to get a Cabinet-level position. He's got a lifetime of experience, a lot of ability and is available (ie nominating him doesn't force an election to fill his seat). Here's hoping.
One fact worth noting: Gephardt is probably disappointed but there is no known bad blood between him and Edwards. On the night of the Iowa caucuses Edwards made a point of praising Gephardt and saluting his service (something a certain Vermont candidate neglected to do). I don't think there should be a bitterness factor between Gephardt and the Kerry/Edwards ticket.
