lol...No doubt. I still can’t belive he picked Biden. What a Blowhard. I remember watching the Senate hearings and this guy was a serious jerk ok. I mean complete A-hole. Seriously, I think Obamas pick for VP actually hurt instead of helped him. If he was politcally smart he would just picked Hillary and let both sides politcal sides duke it out. Instead he picked a Jerk Washington Insider who got a measly 2% of the vote when he ran for the nomination. Great pick there Obama.
I have this nagging feeling it ain't over yet. Biden is campaigning drunk, there are more and more stories about his health, and now his son is in big trouble. Bambi may just pull the plug on Biden (pun intended) and have a do-over.
If Biden act like a jerk in public, imagine how he acts in private and when the cameras are not around.
chalk it up to Obama’s inexperience!
"...but enough about me! What do you think about me?"
It’s a bright early October morning on Capitol Hill. Joe Biden is bounding up the steps of the Russell Senate Office Building, wearing his trademark grin. As he makes for the door, he is met by a group of airline pilots and flight attendants looking vaguely heroic in their navy-blue uniforms and wing-shaped pins. A blandly handsome man in a pilot’s cap steps forward and asks Biden to help pass emergency benefits for laid-off airline workers. Biden nods as the men and women cluster around him with fawning smiles. Then he speaks. “I hope you will support my work on Amtrak as much as I have supported you,” he begins. (Biden rides Amtrak to work every day and is obsessed with the railroad.) “If not, I will screw you badly.”
A dozen faces fall in unison as Biden lectures on. “You’ve not been good to me. You’re also damn selfish. You better listen to me...” It goes on like this for a couple of minutes. Strangely, Biden keeps grinning—even fraternally slapping the stunned man’s shoulder a couple of times. When we finally head into the building, Biden’s communications director, Norm Kurz, turns to me. “What you just witnessed is classic Senator Biden.”

May that be our political salvation. Amen!
