Cuomo for SEC???

John McCain has now officially jumped the shark, the whale, the ocean, and the intergalactic space creature, all at once. He is recommending naming Andrew Cuomo to be chairman of the SEC. That's like giving Ted Kennedy prosecutorial power against pharmaceutical companies, or like asking Putin to head a U.N. investigation of Georgia's Saakashvili. It's absolutely friggin' nuts. Next thing you know, he'll recommend pulling Dickie Scruggs out of prison to give him oversight of payouts for mass asbestosis claims.....
