always remember - Biden was Spence's choice for 2008 presidential candidate. This is the guy Spence believed was best prepared to run the country.

Jimmy Kimmel and President Obama Did Their Best With the Jokes at the Correspondents’ Dinner

Best Joe Biden Joke: "It’s kind of hard to be funny with the president of the United States sitting right next to you, looking at you. And somehow day in and day out, Joe Biden manages to do it."

He was my second choice in the beginning of the primary.

having foot in mouth disease does not mean he isn't capable... if anything, comments like this, "This is a big #^&#^&#^&#^&ing deal' etc... make him less 'fake' to me.... I've been known to say stupid things before...

Yes he is. We all put our feet in our mouths occasionally. He has taken it to an art form. He's also a political hack, who essentially invented the concept of striking down an obviously-qualified Supreme Court nominee (Robert Bork) for political reasons. Biden is an admitted plagiarist, and identifies himself as a devout Catholic, despite the fact that he is rabidly pro-choice. Finally, in his last 2 income tax returns that were published, he gave about $1,000 to charity, out of $300,000 in income.

He is a buffoon, as well as an unprincipled, greedy, hypocritical cheapskate.

And amazingly, with all of that, he's still a million times better than his boss.

At least he didn't claim he invented the internet, but it is
scary to think he's a heartbeat away.

I assume you mean Biden will be off the ticket for November? If so, I agree. If it's a close race, Obama has little reason to keep Biden around. Biden adds NOTHING to the Democratic ticket, as Obama is going to win Deleware with or without Biden. The only thing is that dumping the VP appears desperate, and Obama may not want to appear that way. But if they framed it as a health issue for Biden, Obama can claim that he had no choice but to replace him.

I see no reason for keeping Biden. None.

According to the Washington Post, bin Laden wanted to kill Obama, in part, because he felt Vice President Joe Biden was "unprepared" to step in as commander in chief. Bin Laden's planned assassination of Obama involved hijacking Air Force One, the Post said.

"Obama is the head of infidelity and killing him automatically will make Biden take over the presidency," Bin Laden wrote in a message to one of his top lieutenants, the paper said. "Biden is totally unprepared for that post, which will lead the U.S. into a crisis."

Agree, he has used up his usefulness for the administration.

justplugit 05-02-2012 11:34 AM

I'm thinking Hillary might be his choice. Bill is starting to get
involved with Obama's re-election and Hillary is supposed to
resign Sec.of State end of term.

If Obama wants a pick for mass-appeal, Hilary is the logical choice. The downside is that I'm guessing he doesn't like her. His other option is a popular up-and-comer in one of the swing states, in hopes of capturing that state. Obama needs Ohio, Nevada, Wisconsin. There is no reason to keep Biden around, all he is, is a liability.

On the GOP side, I still say Rubio is the best choice, but lately, I've been hearing the name Condaleeza Rice thrown around. In my opinion, that's a superb pick, because she's experienced, brilliant, talented (classicly trained pianist and a world-class figure skater to boot), and a nice lady. Downside is that she's probably too closely tied to the Bush administration, and the nation is still suffering from Bush fatigue. But I really like her.

We've got a real chance in November, and I never thought I'd say that. Not with (1) Obama's cult status, and (2) the way the media is in the tank for him. But even with that, he's done such a God-awful job, he's vulnerable.

justplugit 05-02-2012 06:16 PM

I don't know Jim, even if he hated her if he thought he could win, he
would choose her. Then there is 2016 where she would be set for
Presidential election.

Gotta agree on Condaleeza Rice, bright,experienced and above the
fray with class.

I think Obama's cult status is pretty much gone, he let them down
with most of his campign promises, except of course the other pschyics
that can read minds.

She is also semi-Pro choice... which would make her a tough pick for the right. The So-Con's will be up in arms...

I think Hillary will sit for 4 years and then run in '16. It will be BHO-Biden, unless it comes out Biden has the big C or something....

You're right, she describes herself as "mildly pro-choice".

That won't play well in a lot of places, which is too bad, because I really think she's terrific. I read her autobiography, it was really interesting, she was born in the segregated south, overcame a whole lot of obstacles.

On Biden, why keep him? What value does he add?

RIROCKHOUND 05-03-2012 07:22 AM

1. He is a good attack dog, which in an elevtion is the Veep's main role.
2. Dumping him looks like a hail Mary and that far out weighs any gain (short of bringing on Hillary)

"He is a good attack dog"

I'll respectfully diasgree. From what I recall, he didn't bloody-up Sarah Palin in their debate, and she's not all that formidable in that setting. He's been around forever, which gives the appearance of experience. Though in my opinion, despite the fact that he was in the Senate forever, he did nothing of consequence. Then again, nether did Obama.

"Dumping him looks like a hail Mary and that far out weighs any gain "

Bingo. The only reason for dumping him is that it smells of desperation. And our megalomaniac-in-chief does not like to appear ruffled.

Piscator 05-03-2012 08:37 AM

I’m not an Obama fan at all but what is he supposed to do. If he keeps Biden then it is a weak link and could hurt. If he lets him go, it shows desperation. That is the problem with politics today. If he just came out and said, “Biden did the best he could as VP. He did some good things but I think Hilary will be a much more effective VP moving forward”? The private sector does it all the time to make themselves better, can’t do it in politics though and that is wrong. I don’t like Obama’s politics but that is something that could be respected. Come out and fire him and hire someone he thinks would be more effective. Although then some people would call him a back stabber etc...

Yup, heard it on CBS News today. Maybe leaked on purpose?
I put nothing past some politicians will do to win.

buckman 05-03-2012 12:26 PM

What if.....for the good of the country...Obama picks someone who could step in, if God forbid something happens to him.,,, Or maybe having Joe as 2nd in line is a form of protection.

This is why they keep Biden.
Is it rhetoric? sure. But I do think, that way more than Romney and Obama, he actually can make connections with 'the rest of us'

If it is going to be a few blue collar independents that swing the election, he offers a lot.

Joe Biden slams Romney in Ohio speech "They Don't Get Us" - YouTube

Even better were his comments during a stop at Dairy Queen....
