Well he is known for his outspokenness, flash back to Feb. 7th of last year (can you believe the campaign has gone on this long?):

WASHINGTON (CNN) — Sen. Joe Biden planned to spend Wednesday focusing on his official announcement that he was running for president, but the Delaware Democrat instead found himself defending remarks he made to the New York Observer about his Democratic opponents.

In the article published Wednesday, Biden is quoted evaluating presidential rivals Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton, D-New York, former Sen. John Edwards, D-North Carolina, and Sen. Barack Obama, D-Illinois. His remarks about Obama, the only African-American serving in the Senate, drew the most scrutiny.

“I mean, you got the first mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy,” Biden said. “I mean, that’s a storybook, man.” ]

Biden would be great to run against. He is always putting his foot in his mouth. Here is another Biden great.

“You CANNOT go to a 7-11 or a Dunkin Donuts unless you have a slight Indian accent ... I’m not joking.” - Joe Biden

Obama knows that Biden is an attention hog, and will be campaign trouble.

Biden is a ho-hum choice, Obama is losing momentum and needs some fresh buzz.

A Biden choice would be torn apart by McCain.

It is critical for Obama to present a clear difference with McCain, Biden wrecks that.

No, Biden for Secretary of State, that's all. Makes no campaign sense to do anything else.

Biden is a walking talking living example of a two legged gaffe machine.

It ought to be good if he’s the one.
