Default Chris Matthews blasting Palin tonight

I know, he's liberal. But he is correct about this. When Sarah Palin talks about the constitution being "flexible" about the role of the VP and that she'll assume a powerful role in the senate and in the administration, she is full of it. The constitution only says she casts the tie vote in the senate and takes over if the president dies. Any "conservative" who would argue otherwise is making the same kind of loose construction argument the "living constitution" folks try to make. Cheney set a bad precedent.
