Same as the old boss.

I find that interesting. Does Biden dislike his current Senate staff? These people will be out of a job in a bad economy come January. I would have thought that he would at least have considered some of them for his VP staff. Wonder what’s happening. Is Biden in control of his own staff? What’s the story behind the scenes?
Note to Obama: This is not 1992!
I bet Chief of staff for the VP is the best job in DC.
No surprise here. ‘Change’ for the Obamistas has always been defined as simply, “sans Bush.”
I’m guessing they will run his senate office since he got elected to two offices.
What is his duty’s, stuff a sock in Joe’s mouth.
“I bet Chief of staff for the VP is the best job in DC”
Yeah, it did wonders for Scooter LIbby
Klain was the chief of staff for Attorney General Janet Reno...
Biden Senate staff must be po’ed.
I wonder about that I wouldn’t want to be a food taster for spooky old joe.
My thoughts exactly. He's been in the Senate for 35 years. You mean to tell me there wasn't a long-time aide on his Senate staff that couldn't fill this post? Oh well, if some toes have been stepped on, here's hoping they're ticked off enough to spill the beans on their years with Joe. A new tell-all book or two? That would be fun.
Help Joe set up fundraisers at Buddhist Temples?
Klain was the central character in the HBO movie “Recount” - played by Kevin Spacey.
Biden.... Biden.... Biden.... Oh yeah! The token old white guy on the ticket. That’s right, I remember now. Gee, I thought he was replaced by Rahm Emanuel...

Who is in charge of keeping Biden from making more gaffes???
I think this is really Clinton’s third term.
Thanks geo.
