Biden As VP?

My worst fear is coming true. Word has it that Delaware's- and perhaps the world's- greatest plagiarist, Joe Biden, is the leading candidate to be the junior Illinois Senator's pick for VP.

What has the world come to? A totally inexperienced, empty-suited Democratic candidate for President and a confirmed plagiarist and general idiot as his running mate?

I knew Peggy Noonan had finally gone around the bend when I read her approval of Biden as VP in her Wall Street Journal editorial this past weekend. She actually thinks he has 'foreign policy experience.' Really?

How so? Sitting on a Senate committee means little. Look at Biden's prospective boss, Obama. He's chair of a Senate foreign policy committee and hasn't even held a hearing. He's been too busy climbing the political ladder before the magic dust wears off of voters and they see him for the fraud that he is.

Perhaps, though, Biden as candidate for VP on the Democratic ticket is actually a good thing. Maybe with him on the lower half of the ticket, voters will see the Democrats as clearly offering inexperience, lies and bad ideas for the White House and our country.

As long as McCain doesn't pick a complete bozo, he's probably got the edge.

I mean, between barely-intelligible sound bites from Biden, and his rich and acknowledged history of stealing other peoples' words, how can he possibly be an asset to any ticket?
