I think Kaine might do it. I don’t think Bayh would. But your right in that whoever wants to take this VP slot is going to have to not mind having their name forever tied to Obama’s.

“If Obama shows up tomorrow wearing a pink pantsuit, you’ll know the email was wrong. That’s what I’m expecting. I imagine he’s been groveling at Hillary’s feet all week long. He doesn’t stand a chance without Clinton Inc. and he knows it.”

Obambi is done for. He knows it, everybody knows it. He is getting crushed in the polls now. Biden will be VP candidate for exactly 5 days until the end of the convention.

His only chance is Hillary.

But why would Hillary accept? If he wins, after 8 years everything will be so screwed up, that there is no chance she will win. Hillary would only accept if she knows there is a scandal that will force Obama to resign.

Does Biden Know?
by Aaron Bruns

WILMINGTON, Del — A day after personally delivering bagels and coffee and joking with reporters staking out his home, potential Democratic Vice Presidential nominee Joe Biden has been decidedly more standoffish with the press as Barack Obama’s VP announcement grows more imminent.

He’s left the house three times - each time with the window rolled up. His returns have been the same - all except one, when he admonished one reporter (me) to get off his property.

Sitting in our FOX cameraman’s SUV, parked on a small patch of dirt and grass along the street on the same side as Biden’s home, I was the first to see Biden approaching the house in a silver GMC SUV. I hopped out, microphone in hand, to alert the rest of the reporters that he was on his way.

But before he pulled in, Biden rolled down the window to express his displeasure with our parking spot - one that had been used by others since Tuesday.

“Get the car off my grass, pal,” Biden said.

“Yes, sir,” I replied, to which Biden shouted “Now!”

I started to explain that it wasn’t my car and I didn’t have the keys, but the senator wasn’t all that interested. He rolled forward into the drive, where he said a quick “hi” to the assembled cameras before speeding by — ignoring my question about whether he’d heard anything yet today about the VP selection.

Our FOX Cameraman has since moved the car.

You can’t blame someone for getting a bit testy with a gaggle of reporters on his lawn for a few days, but Biden’s behavioral shift encourages some idle speculation. With word that Obama has already made his choice, does Biden already know if he’s in or out? And has he changed his behavior towards the press because of it?

“Jindal is not the choice this time around. Palin would really work well against those Obama-Biden.”

Yeah I know, but just imagine if he was... Here Biden is on video making racist comments about Indians and he has to come up against Jindal in a debate. It would be awesome.

The only thing H. Clinton wants other than to be the nominee might be a seat on the US Supreme Court. If I were a Dim and became president, I would offer her the first openning to get her away from by back.

More likely Sibelius

Sibelius is bound to piss off the PUMA's. Obama has to know that. But on the plus side for Obama she has had Tiller The Baby Killer at the governors mansion and you know how much Obama likes abortions.

Just as an aside...I want to 'throw this out there.'

Ever been in a situation where everyone around you was trying to use their cell phones, and the towers got overloaded and the system just crashed for a while. Any thoughts on several million, simultaneous texts being sent and how they could impact telecommunications tomorrow? Just asking...

Impossible to know the hardball ‘negotiations’ and deal making going on behind the scenes. HRC and BillyJeff? I put NOTHING past them .. zero.

I am hoping someone hacks the system and sends out the wrong name.

Biden would be halfway decent at the top of the ticket. Can’t say I blame him for wanting the VP slot since he’ll still get to hang out with his buddies in the Senate, but get another pension and a nicer house... but it won’t help Obama to put Biden on the ticket in any meaningful way. Is it supposed to add ‘gravitas’ to his foreign policy inexperience?

Sibelius (HillaryLite) would make the PUMA’s go thermo-nuclear in their meltdown. I can’t see (if its a woman) anyone but Hillary.

Only problem for the Demagogues: Biden is a lightweight, on foreign policy and everything else.

As the old saying goes, “You can have 30 years of experience or you can have one year of experience 30 times”

I see no evidence that Biden has ever learned much or accomplished much, he is simply a pompous blowhard.

It will not surprise me if Obambi does pick him, but I doubt that he’ll really add strength to the ticket when crunch time comes.
