The more decisions Barack Obama makes, the better I feel about the Republicans' chances in November. Now, that Obama picked Joe Biden as his running mate (in the dead of night, no less), I'm feeling even better about it.
Joe Biden? Joe Biden? Even the nuts are having a hard time working up any enthusiasm over this pick. Of course, when you have the Obamessiah for your candidate, it was probably hard to come up with a suitable V.P. Maybe Moses wasn't available.
Here's a comment that made me laugh:
I was slightly annoyed by the fact that the word got out before the text message, but seriously - if someone tries to make that the media narrative for the next two days they need to get a life. Iraq War? Shitty Economy? A guy so out of touch he doesn’t know how many houses he owns? Let’s talk about what actually matters.
Emphasis mine. So, let me see if I have this straight. The fact that a rich guy doesn't know or worry about how many houses his rich wife owns is the Democrat talking point now? That's something that "actually matters"? How does that matter, exactly? If you know how many houses your family owns, does that make you more prepared to deal with Russia (whom Obama equates with the allied invasion of Iraq)? How about Iran? Does owning only one million-dollar home mean that you aren't going to tax the hell out of everybody? Or that your abortion policies won't sound as ghoulish?
I think Biden is probably as good a V.P. pick as Obama was likely to make. I can just see the commercials now...
Even Obama's running mate likes John McCain
Joe Biden really likes Obama, for a clean and articulate black guy.
Joe Biden: He only plagiarizes the best.
Obama/Biden: One's a celebrity. One's not terribly bright.
Wow, this should be a contest!
