Am I Just As Shocked To See Obama Pick Biden

Am I the only one who is shocked to see Joe Biden as Barack Obama's VP? I thought it would either be Heath Shuler or Evan Bayh, so he can be seen as an outsider.

he's dropping everything just to win.
My fellow Americans, there is nothing audacious about hope. Hope is what makes people buy lottery tickets instead of paying the bills. Hope is for the old gals feeding the slots in Atlantic City. It destroys the inner-city kid who quits school because he hopes he'll be a world-famous recording artist.

What's the difference between Sarah Palin and Barack Obama?

One is a well turned-out, good-looking, and let's be honest, pretty sexy piece of eye-candy.

The other kills her own food.

And picking Biden does this how?  :mental:
I would beg to differ with the notion that the current administration is *NOT* the most transparent in history. It certainly is...because you can see right through them.

Biden is the "fall guy."  When Obama gets crushed by McCain they will claim Biden was the reason OBaby lost.

He says he is no Washington insider, but what is Joe if not a Washington insider.Old Joe has baggage and it will all be plastered all over the web probably starting tomorrow. Obama wants to win at any cost but the team of BoJo will never fly.

The thing is, after 35 years in the Congress, Joe has never accomplished anything.  He's never been elected by his party to any meaningful post -- Whip, Leader, Deputy anything.  Even among Democrats, he's still a nobody.
This post is disruptive, hurtful, rude, insensitive, over-the-top, or otherwise inappropriate.

The only thing that doesnt make him an 'insider' is that his list of special assignments and committee chairs is amazingly short for someone with so many years of service.

Democrats - Especially you Obamatons..  When someone has a job for that many years and isnt promoted, there is often a reason why. Kind of like the last kid picked for gym class sports week after week regardless of the game played.

Hell, someone who may have killed someone via DWI and a former Grand Wizard have probably done more things in their long employment histories than your #2 Hope and Change czar. Consider that for a while.
