He's a bit too righty tighty for me, but a wise one nonetheless!!!!!!!!

CHICAGO (AP) - Sen. Joe Biden has emerged as the clear favorite among Democrats to be Barack Obama's running mate for his understanding of foreign policy in grave global times and his fighting spirit against the rival Republican ticket.

Obama is keeping his decision quiet, but his staff in Chicago and party activists who await a decision are buzzing about Biden in large part because he can address two of Obama's biggest weaknesses - his lack of experience, especially on world affairs, and his reluctance to go on the attack. The speculation among Democrats is less of an indicator of whether Biden will ultimately be Obama's pick, and more of a recognition of the challenges their candidate faces at this pivotal moment in the race.

Obama plans to appear with his newly selected running mate Saturday, with the pick announced via text message to supporters. Obama also is widely thought to be considering Govs. Kathleen Sebelius of Kansas and Tim Kaine of Virginia, and Sen. Evan Bayh of Indiana..............

Biden was first elected to represent Delaware in 1972, when Obama was 11 years old and half the people living in the United States today weren't born yet. He is a curious front-runner for running mate for a candidate who won the primary by arguing he would be a fresh outsider who could bring change to Washington.

Without a doubt, just one of many tickets that can kick the asses of the reichwingers!!!!!!

No matter what happens in November, the country is certainly heading left!!!!!!!!

Wow, actually, I like Biden, he's a bit longwinded, but honestly, if that's the worst you can say of a politician, that's pretty damned good.

Well, it actually makes some really good sense in overall tones. Biden's been the Foreign Relations Advisor for years, as well as 3 decades of experience as a Senator. He did try to make a bid for President, but honestly, Hilary and Obama drowned him clean out, along with every single other person there.

He's also very close to the middle as far as the lib con axis, and I've read his book, he's been very active in getting support from both sides of the aisle, and has respect from both sides as well.

It's not enough to shift my vote off of Barr, but it's definitely a step in the right direction for Obama.

I wish that was the worst you could say about Biden.

[Psychoblues]

Your wish belies your ignorance, a'21.

I wish that was the worst you could say about Biden.

Are you especially proud of that?

[PostmodernProphet]

Biden would be an excellent choice for Obama....every president should have a VP who thinks he's clean......

[theHawk]

I think it will be an Obama bin Biden ticket as well.

Why don't Democrats use their party's name, it's always democratic this and democratic that......... what is a democratic? I guess it's a shame reflex, that somehow if you claim to be democratic it's the same as being democrat. I claim bullshit, there is nothing democratic about democrats.

I guess it's a good choice for Obama, Biden thinks he speaks really good for a negro.

This just may be too easy.

Who knows what you meant, I was asking a simple question, I notice there weren't any answers. Where are my rep points?

I see on C-SPAN that a shit load of Democrat teachers have brought their young school kids to the Pepsi Center in Denver, to let the idiots from the Democrat National Convention to indoctrinate them....... they should be ashamed and they are lucky I don't have a kid in their class.
