DENVER -- No matter what help Barack Obama might get from Sen. Joseph Biden, his newly named vice presidential running mate won't give Obama much cover on the Tony Rezko front.

Biden has described himself as a 30-year friend of a key figure in the Rezko trial who's pleaded guilty to a federal extortion charge in Chicago and is awaiting sentencing.

Looks like Biden’s son is right in there with him. I heard that he has been indicted for fraud.

I’m not surprised to hear this. Joe Biden is more leftist than even Ted Kennedy and he is a commie. He is probably the most left wing politician in washington. They were meant for each other.

” He is probably the most left wing politician in washington. “

Biden is 3rd most liberal senator. Obama is #1. Sheldon Whitehouse of R.I. is #2 and Bernie Sanders -VT, is #4.
