Just look at the two of them standing up there together. Which of these men would you choose to lead?

This was a damn foolish thing to do. Biden, like him or not, is an experienced, seasoned politician. He’s everything Obama is not. He will make Obama look ridiculous by comparison.

Of course some people would pick Obama just because he’s young — those same people will feel offended and betrayed by the choice of Biden for VP. This was a boneheaded move all around. Of course, maybe Obama is being pragmatic and recognizes he is not up to the job, and needs Biden backing him up. I suppose that might be honorable… a far more honorable course of action would have been to bow out when there was time.

Now there’s only one thing to do for the good of the country. We’ll elect McCain. Sorry, Barry.
