I'm not sure how good a president Biden would make (which should be the first threshold for being added to the ticket) but I do think Biden is a good guy and I don't think he's a totaly phony.*

*By virtue of being a politician he is a de facto phony -- it just a question of degrees :o)

Might lose my vote with Biden too.  Just don't like that guy.  I might write in Obama-Kinnock just to be snarky.

(Yes, I lose style points for Kinnock being from the UK and thus ineligible, although I suppose he could write Biden's speeches...)

Its just the name Joe, isn't it Kevin?  Thats the dealbreaker for you!

Many people think Obama will pick Romney.  I'm not so sure, I could see him come from leftfield with someone no one's talked about.  I think Romney is a safe choice and I don't generally think of McCain as a safe politician (though he has been through this campaign).

Obama stopped by in my town (Emporia, Kansas) this morning. Saw it on the paper this afternoon.

There's a report that a company is making Obama/Bayh bumper stickers.

I fear it's Biden; hope it's Clark and suspect it might be Hagel.  If it's Hagel, I sit this one out and regret not voting for Hillary.
