Find a hobby for Cynthia McKinney!! Please??!!

From an Associated Press story by Errin Haines on Cynthia Mckinney's primary loss:

"Cynthia McKinney is loved nationally, locally and internationally," said Brooks, who is president of the Georgia Association of Black Elected Officials. "I expect her to move to the international scene, especially as it relates to peace, justice and environmental issues. This is going to elevate her to another level."
It's always nice to see Americans interested in foreign affairs -- but I'm not entirely sure that this is the best use of McKinney's .... er... talents.

Readers are encouraged to offer Rep. McKinney career advice that does not involve her entering the "international scene."

Please? Pretty please?

Aw, c'mon, Ramsey Clark could use an assistant.

1. She could persue a career advising hip-hop artists.

2. She can spend the next few years investigating voter fraud

3. She can smack some more nasty coppers to promote ratial justice

4. She can sue people.

But why, Dan, would you want to see Cynthia leave the IR field? After all, she has the credentials:

She earned a B.A. in International Relations from the University of Southern California, a Masters of Art in Law and Diplomacy from the Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy, and her mother keeps hoping that this is the year she will complete her Ph.D.

She can join the Tufts IR faculty.

Harold Meyerson's already got this one figured out.

A Lieberman-McKinney Vaudeville Act. Yesterday’s losers make omelets of their broken careers by devising a sketch that can be performed in almost any venue with a minimum of costly scenery. It would go something as follows: Lieberman starts, lecturing the audience with a moral homily. Then McKinney pops him one. Curtain.

As an Atlantan, if it gets her out of town, I am all for Cynthia going international. Maybe she can assist Jimmy Carter with his current projects.

Perhaps there's a seat on the next Shuttle ... and we could leave her up there?

Vince McMahon could work up an angle for her in no time.

She could guest host for Neal Boortz.

I'm told there may be an opening in Cuba shortly for someone of her ideological leanings. She might be a bit too doctrinaire for the locals' tastes, however.

She could build soapboxes.

"She can join the Tufts IR faculty."

So she can go from being the most embarrassing Fletcher alum to being the most embarrassing Fletcher professor?

On the other hand, it would give Scott Thompson some competition for the title.
