I’m bringing my thoughts on this over from ATRW:
I think that, for better or worse, Nobama is stuck with Biden. A few of my reasons are that:
* It is too, too transparent for Biden to get “sick.” They can float that out, with as many doctor reports as they want. It would simply not be believed. They have played on our gullibilty too often. No one believes Nobama when he says that he wasn’t calling Palin a pig. We can’t prove it, but when you take the entire week in context, put it together with his body language, no one really believes it. No one believes that Nobama was just “scratching” his face when he shot Hitlary a bird during that speech. It happened twice at the same spot in the speech with the same pre- and post-gestures and smirks. No one believes it. Just because we can’t prove them wrong doesn’t mean we accept them as truth. No one would believe that Biden is really sick.
*Second, getting rid of Biden calls into question the first executive decision that Nobama made. If he screwed up so badly on this as a mere candidate, how many other screw-up decisions would he have to recall as a President with far greater consequences. Many people will call his judgement into question and vote against him on that basis.
*Hitlary may accept a spot as the VP, but it won’t go down well with the PUMAS. They all know how she was treated earlier and they are not happy. Some may accept this treatment as better than nothing, but many would say that second choice is a no choice, that it is an insult to expect her to now pull his chesnuts out of the fire.
*Mishelley won’t allow Hitlary on the ticket because it would make it appear that Nobama is less of a man and cannot survive w/o Hitlary riding in to save the day. Shelley is riding Nobama’s coattails as well and to put him down is putting Mishelley down too. She won’t let that happen.
I don’t think we’ll see a change. The ticket is Nobama/Biden and it is another Hill & Bill type marriage.

What are the odds? I mean he seemed to be in perfect health when he instructed Chuck to stand up.

I had not heard this story before. If he did that to Hillary and people knew about it, then that explains why he was wiping his face when he gave the lipstick on a pig line.
