Niall Ferguson for National Security Advisor?

Maybe, if we see a President McCain:

His growing kitchen cabinet spans an array of issues and backgrounds, and includes James Jay Baker, a former lobbyist for the National Rifle Association; Niall Ferguson, a historian at Harvard; and Barry McCaffrey, who was the drug czar under President Bill Clinton.

Niall Ferguson is a brilliant man and an always entertaining read, but letting him anywhere near the levers of power would be a bad idea.
