Running for President is harder than it looks. If you so much as cough, you are dying of Parkinsons.

But if you are VP you don't even have to recall what newspapers you read.

And clearly their candidate doesn't either!

Johnson is so going to get a punch to the face from Bill Weld later today.

I have to say that's a very poorly worded question.
