Obama-Biden 08

The candidate who claimed the Democratic presidential nomination with a message of change has turned to a six-term senator and Washington insider for his running mate.

Barack Obama's choice of Delaware Sen. Joe Biden as the Democratic vice presidential nominee instantly bolsters the ticket's credentials on foreign policy, an area where Obama's background is limited. Biden, who chairs the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, is one of Congress' most knowledgable and respected voices on national security.

Overall, I think Biden's a good choice for one Messiah.

But all I've heard the past few weeks is how The Messiah is the type of person who listens to others before making a decision.

What about those 17 million democrats who said WE WANT CLINTON!?

He didn't even give those 17 million the courtesy of a cursory vetting.

So he took in aqll this information and ended up with an old Washington insider.

Clue for Obama, That guy is already on the ballot.

Of all the possible choices - from an admittedly shallow pool - Biden is the one guy that brings nothing. If he was just a "zero," you could
have at least said that he was a benign choice, but Biden is a net
negative!

What's that McCain says about, "questioning his judgment." This pretty much proves his point.

These would have been my choices in order of Republican concern: Clinton, Bayh, Kaine, Nelson, Richardson, Hagel, C. Edwards....Hannah Montana, Wesley Clark, Osama Bin Laden, Biden.
