Ghoullio,

If that were the rationale, I think Obama would’ve been better served letting Biden stay on the Senate Judiciary Committee where he could twist arms to get votes. The Dems aren’t likely to lose the Senate but I think he’d still be more effective getting votes from the inside.

Biden is not going to excite anyone as VP and I doubt the selection will do much to mollify the Hillary wing. Bad choice.
