I have a new theory about what's wrong with our country. Everyone takes themselves too damned seriously, and overestimates their own significance.

As Veep, she doesn't appear to have done anything either reprehensible or outstanding, yet she's loathed worse than Hillary. I don't think she's hideous. I think she is a fairly mainstream Democrat. And,...
