Pouring over the above links, plus other articles from the regulars (NYT, CNN, NPR etc), I was most struck by this line from, of all places, Britain’s “Telegraph”:
“The Delaware senator is a combative orator who can play the “attack dog” role when the election gets nasty…”

Waiiiit. Not to be too simplistic, but is Biden our Cheney? Is that a good thing? Might be. The experience, the sometimes ill-chose statements– just not, you know, seething with evil like ol’ Dick, lol.

At first blush I agree he’s the best choice to balance out the ticket. Let’s get him diversity training and then prep for McCain’s opening salvos!

Biden is the perfect choice, he was my second fave after the Man Obama in the Dem Primaries. He keeps it real, works hard and really loves this country. It is a perfect match. Biden estimated worth is around $100,000 total, and the Obama’s just recently got out of debt thanks to Obama’s best-selling bookss. So these are two folks who have worked to live the American dream and I believe they want more of us to share in that dream.

So much love to JObama O’Biden, whatever you call them, I am calling them the next President and Vice President of these United (united, nice word ain’t it?) States of America.

Peace
