And why didn't he become a stay-at-home dad, at least temporarily, to care for and emotionally support his two remaining and seriously injured children when their mother (his wife) and infant daughter were killed in a car accident?? In Palin's case, there is a father involved to help out with the raising of the children. I can't understand how he (Biden) could do that.

"In 1966, while in law school, Biden married Neilia Hunter. They had three children, Joseph R. 'Beau' Biden III, Robert Hunter, and Naomi Christina ('Amy'). His wife and infant daughter died in a car accident shortly after he was first elected to the Senate in 1972. His two sons, Beau and Hunter, were seriously injured in the accident, but both eventually made full recoveries.

Biden was sworn into office from their bedside. Persuaded not to resign in order to care for them, Biden began the practice of commuting an hour and a half each day on the train from his home in the Wilmington suburbs to Washington, D.C., which he continues to do."
