Biden=Bad Choice

I don't see how you can talk credibly about change, and youth, and so forth when your running mate is a grizzled, old career Washington insider. Not that I expect the running mate will have any actual influence on the candidate, or his positions. This is about image.

On the bright side, the VP candidate's only real job is attacking the opponent, and Biden's got brass knuckles. And of course, on the other bright side, Biden has a kid deployed in Iraq, which brings home the idea of service and sacrifice seldom seen from candidates for high office these days. (I know: McCain went to war, too, like Kerry and Gore, but no Republican candidate since Bush Sr.)
