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.

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.



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