You got to love the way Biden is covering 0bama’s ass. They promise the world months ago and now they are afraid they wont be able to make good on it.
Actually, I think this is something different. Mr. Biden is sowing the seeds for significant discord within Obama's administration.
Obama is a classic case of "youth and enthusiasm in collision with inexperience and naivete." He'll actually start out trying (and most likely failing) to make good on all of the things he promised.
Biden is the cynical old insider, who will undoubtedly feel the need to 'splain to the youngster how things really work in Washington DC.
In classic fashion, Obama will become increasingly frustrated with his Vice President. I predict that within a year, Obama will be ignoring Biden at every opportunity.
And Biden's office will be leaking to beat the band -- initially to try to influence Obama's policies; and eventually just out of spite.
The Senate will probably side with Biden, trying to moderate Obama's exuberance.
Should be an entertaining few years.
